I actually got American Airline Credit card 75K offer

I posted below for 40K sign up link, then I saw someone mentioned 75K offer and remember seeing one in my email earlier today, but delete right the way. Why?  I did not read the detail email, only saw 75K, then saw 3 cards, then assumed 25K each, not good deal, deleted.

I can post link, does anyone want to give a try, I don’t see anywhere mentioned it’s a targeted promotion although diff people get diff offers.

Visa, Amex and Visa business

  • 75,000 American Airlines AAdvantage® bonus miles after $1,500 in purchases within the first 6 months of cardmembership1 — enough for select round-trip international travel awards2

  • Earn one AAdvantage® mile for every dollar spent on purchases3
  • No blackout dates on award travel on American Airlines, American Eagle and the AmericanConnection® carrier4

    Just to confirm, are the links above to the 75K offer?

  2. Troy said,

    @Pauline, the link I posted here is direct from my email, however, it looks like diff people get diff offers, so it may be a targeted promotion, but you can give a try.

  3. Michael said,

    Used the link, hope it works! I only had the 40k offer in my inbox.

    i think its “actually”

  6. Jonathan said,

    I can confirm that these links work. I applied for the Amex and Biz Visa; had to call about one application, and they told me I would get the 75K miles for $1500 spend in six months.

  7. Gil said,

    Jonathan- Is the one you verified the Business Visa using the link above? That’s the one I want and I can’t find any definitive info on it on the flyertalk thread. Thanks

  8. Aanarav Sareen said,

    Thanks for posting these. I applied, was approved and called in to verify the 75,000 bonus.

    Great offer, thanks!

  9. Troy said,

    Sareen, Great to hear it’s working!

  10. Jonathan said,

    @Gil, yeah, it’s the Biz Visa using the links above.

  11. Pauline said,

    I must have really bad luck. I got an email after I applied and heard back 24 hours later saying.

    Why we’re writing you
    Thank you for applying for the Citi(R) Platinum Select(R) / AAdvantage(R) Visa Signature(R) account. Unfortunately, we are unable to approve your request for the account at this time because of the following:

    oThis specific offer is valid only for first-time Citi(R)
    AAdvantage(R) cardmembers.? Our records indicate that
    you already have a Citi(R) / AAdvantage(R) account with us.

    Here’s what you should know
    Our credit decision was based, in whole or in part, on
    information obtained in a report from the following consumer reporting agency:

    I do not have a CITIBANK VISA but I do have a CITIBANK AMEX. What gives??? Anyone else with this problem?

  12. Troy said,

    @Pailine, that’s a bad luck, did you call them?

  13. Pauline said,

    No I have not, but I will call to inquire and see if they can offer me the card for a different promo or the business card since they already dinged by credit for that application. I will report back on what they say.

  14. Troy said,

    @pauline, it looks like a lot more people got declined if you have any Citi/AA cards active.

  15. manny said,

    Pauline, if you have any luck when you call them, please let me know, I got declined too. I had an Amex card which I canceled 2 months ago.

  16. J-Man said,

    I, too, just applied for the Visa card online (using the link posted above on this site). I called 2 minutes later (phone number and application code pop up after application is submitted) and was told I was approved. I verified that the annual fee is waived and 75K bonus after $1500 in spend. Thanks, all!!

  17. M M said,

    Fwiw, I had an existing business citibank MC card tied to my AA account and applied for the personal Visa and was approved online. Haven’t tried for a 2nd business card.

  18. Troy said,

    @ M M, business and personal should ok, but more than one personal or business is YMMV

  19. M M said,

    @Troy, thanks for the info. Since I haven’t been applying for cards much at all, I went ahead and applied for the personal Amex and was approved for that too. Hopefully both approvals will stick and I won’t be retroactively denied…

  20. karen said,

    thanks for this! i was worried that i’d missed the boat (i applied august 4th) but was approved online for the visa…called a day later and agent confirmed annual fee would be waived for the first year and a 75,000 bonus applied after $1500 spend.

    excellent news!

  21. mm said,

    got the visa business thanks and they quoted me the 75000 miles over the phone wish I didn’t do the 30000+5000 deal for regular visa one month ago..

  22. Nikky said,

    I just got approved for a business Visa card using the link above. I have an existing personal Visa (since Dec 09). I applied online and got instant approval then called 1-800-472-2069 to confirm that I get 75k miles after $1500 in 6 months! First year’s fee also waived!

  23. Nikky said,

    Oh and I just applied today Aug 16 so it’s still on!

  24. SEOwiz.org said,

    I signed up for the Visa Personal and got approved instantly. Then I applied for the Business Visa and got the “We will let you know” response. Why would that be? I don’t have any AA citi cards and I have a business. Also, has anyone gotten approved for all three cards (the Visa Personal, the American Express Personal and the Visa Business)? I want to try for the AX Personal but don’t want want waste a credit check. Advice?

  26. Troy said,

    @SEOwiz, a lot of times, Business card doesn’t get instant respond, just be patient.

  27. Stella said,

    I just got one, but how to spend $1500 in a month ( I know it’s within six months). But I need to travel in a month. But I don’t need anything special for this month..

  28. Stephen said,

    Does anyone have a phone # handy so I can just call and apply directly for this offer without taking a chance on the online application getting approved?

  29. in the riches said,

    (800) 408-4954 and ask if the 75,000 mile American Airlines credit card offer is still available
