I'm aware this conversation might be a bit dated, but in case it benefits someone, I'd like to explain how I managed to obtain 150,000 points.
First, visit the American Express website where you'll see a promotion for 80,000 welcome points. Proceed to apply for this offer. It's important to note that you can check your eligibility for the card without affecting your credit score.
After your application is accepted, retract your application. Following this, you should receive a new invitation to apply, this time with an offer of 150,000 points.
Also, if you're interested in a referral, feel free to let me know. Full disclosure: I'll receive referral points if your application is successful.

You don't have to do this. I'm sitting on the AMEX website now with the Platinum card info. If you just sit there for a long time, eventually the offer for 150k membership points just shows up, at least it did for me. I didn't have to retract anything.
Give the above method a try and update how it goes. I'm also curious to know if mine was a fluke 🙂
695 is annual fee.
The page expired. I hit refresh. I was given the deal for 150k points. I ended up not going for it, as I wanted the lounge access to delta.
2024, the delta lounge access is going away. You'll get a select amount of passes unless you spend 75k per year. Also, you can't go to the lounge without having a delta boarding pass, which I can't always book delta, but my airport only has a delta lounge.
I also have to book through my job's travel portal, so after not having the lounge or premium point return, not quite worth it for me
I got an "Earn Up to 150k.." offer. Went through the pre-app and they only gave me 80k at the final screen. I feel like that's a bait and switch. Withdrew.

Is the annual fee per calendar year? As in we get charged $695 for having the card 14 days, then charged again? Or is it actually annual?
