I recently asked an Amex CSR about sign up bonuses. The representative only says that the amount will appear in 8-12 weeks, but usually much sooner than that. I had my Amex CM since middle of Aug, and have already completed the spending requirement by middle of September. So far, still no info on when it will post. I did receive a strange $150 cash back in September, but from Zipcar, under the name "Welcome Incentive Cashback." Searched all over and asked zipcar about this promotion--no body knew what it was. Was it my Amex welcome bonus (just coded wrong)?
More than likely, your bonus was just applied as a statement credit. If the bonus was $150, and you spent that amount on Zipcar, it may have been applied to that purchase.

I just added my statement details until that cashback. The last purchase that went over the bonus limit was Zipcar. That clears it up so much. Thank you!
When i got my CM it had a 2 part SUB, i completed first part, received the $150 pretty fast, second part did not complete as spend requirement was too much for me
