Deal Details
I saw this offer yesterday and was able to reproduce it today in an incognito session and in a Chrome session for one of my GMail accounts. Didn't see it in another account though so definitely YMMV.

I searched "amex plat" and clicked on the first result (sponsored/ad). I've attached a screenshot of what the offer looks like as well as the link that I landed on.

The link did *not* trigger the 150k offer in the account that didn't get the offer from the search results so I don't think there's anything special about it.

Worked for me! Thanks! I had to do what you said... open incognito session in Chrome, then search "amex plat" and clicked on the first result (sponsored/ad).

In this context, MS stands for manufactured spending, I'd imagine.

Annual fees @ 695 is top high. Net gain is only 1250-700=550. Am I missing anything. Rest of the benefits included not much useful for avg user who does not travel much.

So for $200 airlines credit you have to CHOOSE ONE AIRLINE and fly only that.
for $200 UBER credit, you get $15 per month , so if you decide to travel in January you have $15 to claim?
$200 hotel credit it on FINE HOTEL COLLECTION.. no clue what that is...
$240 digital entertainment credit is only for HULU ESPN+ DISNEY AND NYTIMES. No Netflix or prime.
$155 for Walmart + ... who even uses this.

Is this even useful to an average person who doesnt travel every month ?

Searched Amex Gold and got an offer for 90k vs standard 60k with same process. Probably better value for avg person in achieving ROI

Sorry for being slow, but you're saying it shows 100K on that page but when you click Apply Now the application page shows 150K (still only shows 100K for me)? TIA.

With the benefits the way they are now, it's essentially just a status symbol. Like chrome testicles hanging from a trailer hitch.

Definitely worth it for the first year on the bonus alone, after that depends whether you get a retention offer or how your usage is.
