If you try applying again you'll get a pop up saying you're not eligible for the bonus when you submit the app

1) what is the best way to transfer these points to a no annual fee credit card?
2) Once I cancel this will i be eligible for the Gold card bonus if I apply one ?

You're better off applying for Gold first and wait a few days for it to link your existing MR account then cancel the Plat so you keep existing pts alive
Make sure its been a full yr from opening otherwise Amex will clawback your Plat bonus for closing within 1yr -- safer to let annual fee post then cancel (annual fee will be refunded within 48 hrs to even out the charge)
I got the regular "Amex Everyday" card in the past since it has MR pts and no annual fee -- keeps my MR account alive and I can bank the pts without having to worry about losing them (have opened and closed Plat/Gold/Green/Schwab in the past for MR bonuses)

Amex must be cracking down. Do I ever get out of the pop up?

Nobody knows the exact set of rules they use for the popup ban for new SUBs... some folks report it going away after various periods of time with no clear pattern to how, why, or when... also targeted offers bypass it.
