Just want to share after I received an offer with RSVP code to app for the Platinum with 50k/$5K spend in the mail yesterday. I already have the PRG and BCP, so I took the offer and apped last night but received a 14 day message. Called this morning and answered a few verification questions and CS said: "Congratulations! Your application is approved!". I know the AF is high but I wanted to add the Platinum to my line up of Amex cards 
. I asked CS if he can change my offer to 100K/$3K spend from the previous offers I've read in this forum but no go. My data points when I apped: FICO EX 687 with 19 Inqs. I love the perks on this card as well as my PRG and I will use the perks when I travel. Thank you all for the information here.

Thank you . I was quite excited apping it last night, the offer packet looks decent and I felt special ... lol
Nice, congrats on the Amex approval, enjoy the benefits 
Congrats on your approval and welcome to the AMEX family.
I was approved for this card last month and received the same 14 day message. I called in and they wanted to make sure it was in fact me that applied for the card. I love this card and have already received $300 in perks already. I purchased a $200 Southwest gift card and received a $200 statement credit and received a $100 statement credit for my Global Entry application.
I was rather disappointed in the packaging the card came in. It came in a plain white box that said American Express Platinum.

Congrats on the approval. I received the offer in the mail the other day too. I am going to bail on this offer and see if that 100k with 3k spend comes out again.

Thank you GDanzy and Congrats to you too!. When read the 14 day message after I hit submit I thought it was a denial but I was wrong, AMex just wanted to make sure I was the one who apped. Thanks sharing about the perks. Is it only the SW gift card that I should buy to get the $200 statement credit and the $100 Global credit? Can't wait for it in the mail
