A couple of Reddit members are getting a mailer offer for the new American Express Gold card, and these mailers don’t show the lifetime language. All other details are the same, including:
- Get a 50,000 points signup bonus when spending $2,000 within 3 months.
- Get 20% back at restaurants, up to $100, on purchases during the first 3 months.
- The regular $10 monthly dining credit.
- The standard non-waivable $250 annual fee.
This mailer being sent out has a quick expiration date of 11/18/18. It also has the rose colored card available.
Typically, you’d do better applying via referral link, even self-referral, but if you’ve already had the Premier Rewards Gold card and thus aren’t eligible for the signup bonus on the Gold card, this is a good option.

Hat tip to Reddit user d3athrow
I’d like to know if a cardholder who got the 20% back on restaurants can add an authorized user and the authorized user also get 20% back? for a total of $200?
another blog reports this, but I haven’t seen it anywhere else. any DPs? or info at all?
Anyone want the 50K Signup bonus, with the rest of the standard offer (Expires 01/09/2019), I can send you the referral , plz text me at [removed]
Do you still have the referral ? If so, can you please email me at [email protected]? Thanks
does the 20% CB ($100 in total) apply to AU card individually? (not shared $100)

got this offer in mail a while ago with expire date 12/21/18, after i paid offer almost 10k credit card balance(mostly are GC or MS purchases) 2 days ago, i applied today and type in my 14 dig rsvp code and put my SSN, address, DOB and annual income, got instant approval with temp card# for use on samsung pay or online, what so strange, no credit limit. Not sure if i need sign on a new user name or add the card to my existing amex logon.
It’s a charge card. There isn’t a traditional credit limit.
Excited DP (I never get targeted for these!): I got this in the mail today. Had and closed the PRG maybe 2-3 years ago. Was holding out for a possible upgrade offer on my Green card. Couldn’t believe it when I read and re-read the T&C that there was no lifetime language. Then I found this post, so I figured, give it a shot!
Approved immediately. This plus the Platinum card plus Everyday Preferred card are pretty compelling, I may end up shifting a huge portion of my spend from Chase UR to Amex MR.
I got this mailer too but my expiration date is 12/8/2018. I had the PRG since 2/2016 but upgraded it to Plat in 8/2018. When I applied online using the rsvp code, I didn’t get a pop up saying I was in eligible for the bonus offer. I was approved and am hoping I’m still eligible for the 50k MR
The referral code is below to receive your 50,000 points bonus on newly released Amex Gold thru the referral link. 50,000 points are worth $1000 if redeemed wisely!

My wife had the PRG years ago and received this targeted offer via Email and in the mail. She just applied for the offer via the email she received and was approved.
My wife has the PRG 1 year, fee posted last month and got the retention offer 10,000 MR with $1500 spending, Pts already posted. Today got a mailer offer for the Gold card without lifetime language. Is she eligible?
I still have AMEX Gold so I chat with them and they said this is not new one so if I apply I will not get bonus.
