It still works for me as of right now. The link above only shows 75k points, but if you use an actual referral link it'll show 90k

Hey guys, if you are able to get a referral on your account you can get 9x back on gift cards (make sure you buy at grocery store that codes as grocery, some do not) and 9x back on gas (Some stations code as Grocery, Speedway is one that often does) This is for a period of 3 months. Pretty slick!

Some claim you have a chance of claw back with the gift card trick (apparently there can be extra data in the transaction that tells Amex it was a gift card). I always buy gift cards with some groceries. Not sure if that helps but so far I've gotten 9x back.

I see the offer. Not sure if it was there when I reffered few weeks ago. Does the extra 5x post usually with the 4x (for grocery) or only later? I had a grocery purchase after the referral and it only shows 4x. Checked "Points Summary" page as well and not seeing the extra 5x. So I guess my previous referral did not qualify?

Posts shortly thereafter. The 5x extra lists as bonus points.

I got an email confirming the 5x referral bonus and after that everything has been good.

I received a referral link but when I went to check before you apply to see if I will qualify, its say's would will not qualify for welcome bonus. I have never had a Amex Gold card and i confirmed with the customer service this am that I am eligible for Amex Gold bonus offer. Now I am not sure I should apply.

Some people getting pop up for using a referral link (90k bonus + $200 credit) but they might get approved if applying for public offer (90k bonus only) -- 90k is still good

If you get pop up on both then you're in pop up jail -- google "amex pop up jail" (might have closed Amex cards recently or might not have enough spend on existing cards)

Directly on Amex website -- might have to open website in incognito or use VPN to see higher 90k public offer

I guess you might be right. I opened Amex Platinum last month and got a unlimited credit limit !! I have only spent 2.5 k on that and always pay my CC in full. Is that the issue here?

Amex platinum (and gold) are not credit cards- they are charge cards. There's no preset spending limit on charge cards.

Got this card last week and was wondering if anyone has successfully bought $10 GC to any of the places on the dining benefit list and have the monthly $10 credit post?

I was thinking of going each month into one of these and buying a $10 GC go bank up and then have a big dinner once a year

- The Cheesecake Factory, Goldbelly, Wine.com, Milk Bar and select
Shake Shack locations.
