I really hated not going for any AMEX cards in my last churn but we all have our own goals. If you are thinking about a churn, be sure to check the following link if you are targeted for the 50,000 AMEX Membership Rewards card that can be sent to Delta if you would want.
The AMEX Membership Rewards card is NOT a Delta card so if you have a Delta GOLD or other Delta you can still get this one too (just not on the same churn). The next card, the Delta one, I would NOT go for the 45,000 Delta AMEX card as with $5000 spend to get the points that is just way too high for me. – René

Do you have a link to check Chase offers or Citibank offers?
@GND – right now, you can check my links, for the best offers. Chase 50k INK cards are still just about the best deal going!
I am targeted. However I was just granted a buz plat (targeted 100k) on Sunday. In same sitting I went for UA Explorer and USAir 50k offer. Odds of approval if I applied today/tomorrow for this?
@geewhiz – the 100k BIZ has nothing to do with this one. BUT, you will probably get a NO right off the bat and will have to call to explain why you want the personal card too (the next day). If you have less than 4 total credit cards (with this new one), you should be able to get it. But then I would cool it for a while
If you just got the 100,000 Amex Plat, will you still be able to get this? I am targeted but not sure it’ll go through.
@Chris – YES IF, only IF, you got the BIZ one. This is a personal one!
Ah, I got the personal. Oh well, Thanks.
Thanks for the reminder. I applied and got approved instantly. I was really surprised since I already had the SPG, Delta Gold, Hilton, and Blue. I was expecting to have to call in and trade the Hilton and Blue, but yay!
@mwwalk – great but be careful on too many with AMEX to avoid Financial Review. FR is OK if you are willing to do it, but for me, always be conservative. There will ALWAYS be more points. Always think then click! – Rene
The good thing about this card is that it does not go towards your 4 card amex total. That 4 card limit is only for credit cards. This one and the plat as charge cards can be above and beyond the 4 card limit.
I got targeted!!!
So just to be clear, if I have the Delta Amex Platinum credit card, I can get this one too and still receive the 50k? And then do I just transfer the 50k points to 50k Delta Skymiles? (Sorry, I’m new to this!)
@Mack – 100% YES (as long as you have not had the GOLD MR card for 365+ days). Membership Rewards points transfer to Delta almost instantly and are 1-to-1 transfer (unless they have a bonus like in the past where you got 25-100% bonus when you send them). – Rene
That’s awesome! Thanks so much for answering my question! Love the blog and learning so much!

Just applied and got the 50k. Also have a Delta Amex gold and a business reserve. Thinking about doing the upgrade to platinum on the personal for 5k miles and to get the free companion which we use all the time. Thoughts?
@Jekadad – great! I am NOT a fan of upgrades. You can try but to make 100% sure you get the max points, cancel, wait 365+ days, get new. http://boardingarea.com/blogs/deltapoints/2013/02/18/and-so-bobs-delta-amex-upgrade-story-is-still-not-over-by-a-long-shot/
