Business Platinum after Personal?

[Oli]

Is there any period of time after having a Personal Amex that I have to wait before qualifying for the signup bonus on the Business Platinum?

I registered about 6 weeks ago (having completed a bonus on the personal platinum) and have spent the £6k required for 40k bonus points, but nothing is showing yet (nor a bar in my account which says “Spend x before y to get 40,000 points)

When I signed up for my Business Gold, Amex set up an entirely separate points account from the one I run on my personal Platinum. So I wonder how that works with regards to bonuses. I can’t remember what bonus I received, as I know I didn’t sign up during a promotional period. Might be worth giving customer services a call.

Nope. I have a personal MR card at the moment and recently signed up for the Accelerating Business one – got the bonus points. They are 2 separate things entirely.

Thanks, do you remember if it showed the “Progress Bar” from the start?

[caj2310]

No – it didn’t

I think you have had some duff advice. You need a 6 month fallow period.

Update – bonus points came through today. Thanks for the replies.
