Has anyone successfully "upgraded" their publicly offered Amex Platinum edge card into an affiliate/ professional association card and been issued their bonus points?
The offer was for existing Amex cardmembers looking to "upgrade". I read that as being able to upgrade from my 'publicly' available card to the 'affilate' card, so I am hopeful for the 20,000 points. It didn't say anything about "if this is your first plat edge card.." (which I have seen on other offers).
I am waiting to see whether it will happen. Couldn't read anything in their T&C's except for waiting 8-10 weeks for the points.
Anyone done this and can report on the outcome? At least I'll reduce the fee from $149 to $99.
