AMEX's lifetime restriction does not apply when they target you for the promo (in-app / via mail etc). I had Plat few years ago and downgraded, they spammed with pre-approvals recently.

dmed you, can you take a look? thanks

Amex doesn't care what you buy- why would they?

They care if you buy CASH cards (prepaid visas) because they don't want you essentially buying cash with the card (and even then if you can do it without L3 reporting they have no way to know you did it and it's fine).... but I've never had any issue with points posting for third party or store branded gift cards though.... Similarly when Chase does groceries as a 5x category I usually max out any remaining cap on any of my freedoms last week of the quarter with grocery store gift cards- and nobody cares....same with Costco gift cards in warehouse quarters, etc...

Annual fee used to be $99. I don't like it when credit card annual fees go up over time because you have to cancel it eventually.

You just downgrad to a no annual fee card with amex

I need help with this offer. Amex said I'm not eligible for the sign up bonus. I sent you a PM for your link.

how long did it take for the 90K points to hit your account?

I hit my spend requirement mid last April and I still haven't seen the 90K points nor the $200 credit

Amex has been slow lately with posting credits for the various benefits

It was very quick. I don't know the exact date I hit the spend requirement, but would guess I had the bonus within 7 days of it.
Also realize I got the $200 credit within the first week of having the card. I just didn't see it on statement.
