Spend bonuses post almost immediately with Amex. Like 2-3 days at max. MR Points and Cash Back USUALLY post the next statement, but they can be slow. Both these facts are pretty well known for Amex.

That hasn't been my experience and a lot of other people have posted long delays for bonuses as well.

For the signup bonuses? There may be a few rare cases, but I'm pretty sure the complaint has always been about receiving the cash back and MR points for normal spend with the card after a statement or two. Signup bonuses (and Amex Offers) usually post really fast.
