Anyone has referral link for American Express AIR MILES Platinum Credit Card?
GCR seems to have pulled the $50 for the AMEX AM Platinum card.
I’ve reached out to GCR to see what’s what.
Ya seeing $0 cashback right now
One advantage that air miles have over other programs is you can redeem for US park tickets for Universal Studios and Disneyland as well as musicals and theme parks in Canada.
Thanks for that Ricky. you are right that air miles kinda suck in comparison to the others. Also you are right that their flight search engines blows. I have had a frustrating time trying to get flight availability at any rate.
Do you have Air Miles status Eric? I’ve found availability to be significantly improved with Onyx status, plus saving some miles never hurts.
Agreed on the search engine, I’d almost say Aeroplan has a better engine :p. My biggest gripe is that Air Miles only searches 1 day at a time, with no calendar view when looking for their limited availability.
Ricky, the sign-up bonus is 3000 AM through referral link
Thanks Jian.
Good catch, the Air Miles Reserve Amex card is 3,000 Air Miles through a referral. That’ll definitely boost the value of that card, although the Platinum is still probably a better choice.
Hey Ricky, do you know if BMO tends to ask T4 or other income verification for new customers? No chequing or any other products so far.
I’ve heard a few data points that BMO asks for income verification but didn’t get asked personally. That being said, it’s never a good idea to lie on credit card applications.
The $150 annual fee on the BMO WE can also be waived if you bank with bmo and have their premium chequing account ($30/month or have min $6000 in your account). You will get any premium credit card fee rebated up to $150.
