Upgrade from AMEX Delta Gold to Platinum?

So I'm preapproved for an upgrade from the Gold Delta AMEX to the Platinum.  I can't tell too much difference in the rewards other than the Gold has a $99 Companion Ticket and the Platinum has the annual Companion Certificate.  I fly Delta a good deal and they are my rewards card of choice.  This deal also gives 15K miles and 5K MQM after the first purchase.  The difference in the AF is from $90 for the Gold to $150 for the Platinum.  There is also a spending bonus on the Platinum which I will probably not reach. All in all, it sounds okay.  Nothing great, but nothing lost either.  Any way you look at it I will get the AF back through the Companion Certificate and do even better when you add in the miles earned. Any comments?  Anyone have any experience with this upgrade? Thanks for your thoughts.

Its really not hard to get approved for a charge card. Personally unless you travel enough to make the airport lounge perk a value worth $400,  The Premier Rewards Gold with polnt multipliers and your first year of AF waived,  The main reason to just add another card instead of upgrading is  the free backdating goodness.

  • Upgrade from AMEX PRG to Platinum? What About Bonus Points?

    I just got my PRG in May and my first statement just posted. I went to the Amex upgrade site and its offering the Platinum charge card. Does this mean I'm eligible to upgrade to the platinum ?? I remember reading that you had to have your card for 12 month's before you could upgrade. Has this since changed ?? Lastly, I haven't completed my 2K spend requirement for the PRG bonus of 50K points. I only need to spend about $200. more to reach it. Will I lose my 50K bonus points if I upgrade, either now before I reach my spend requirement or after I reach it ?? Thanks !!! (Mod edit--We created a new thread for your topic and updated the subject line, due to the age of the original thread which had your response)

Just means the button showed up. It's essentially like an application to upgrade (no hard pull) but they can say no. 

  • Amex Delta Gold Skymiles card (need some advice/reassurance)

    I applied for this card (has a $95 annual fee but waived the first year) on June 28, 2015 and immediately regretted doing so. I really didn't think it through and only did it because the week leading up to the 28th I was hanging out with my brother and he had one and I thought I would use it a lot, etc. Stupid, I know. I canceled it the following Monday (29th), literally less than 24 hours after being approved. The gentleman confirmed I closed the account at my (the consumer's) request. I got email confirmation, and then another day later another email. I still got the card in the mail since it was already mailed out, but never activated it of course and the sticker is still on it. Further, I called Amex and entered in the 15-digit card number and got through some prompts that ultimately said the account was deleted, but that I could reopen it within 90 days if I do so wish. My questions: 1) Is it possible that if I keep this card, can I call and get the fee waived every year? 2) If I have to pay the $95 fee next year, how is it charged? Over 12 months, all at once the first month of your new year? 3) If I keep the account closed as it is now, will it ever show as an account on my credit report? I realize it'll be a hard inquiry, but my hope was to have it NOT show up as an account as to not lower my AAOE. It would literally have been open for 23 hours..... I figure that if it WILL show as an account, I might as well call the number again and go through the prompts to reopen the account.... I've never opened and closed an account within 24 hrs so I have no idea what moving parts are at play here.  Already have: Capital One Card ($750 limit - first credit card, really don't use anymore), Discover It ($2,850 limit - really don't use anymore), Chase Sapphire ($10,000 limit - I pay most of my bills and expenses with this when not using my debit card).

It won't benefit you at all. It will not benefit me at all. Like I said it was a hasty, stupid decision to even apply for it. I really just want to know what to expect on my credit report. Per Credit Karma, my score is consistently around 768.... I always pay my balance in FULL at the end of each month. Basically like using a loan for each month and always repaying it. I've never paid a penny of interest and all payments are on time.. some more begrudgingly than others.

  • Amex delta Gold 40k miles (targeted)

    Check your emails , snail mails i got targeted for 40k miles after $1k spend plus a $50 statement credit after 1st purchase , i know its not the best offer , since sometimes they will make it up to 50k for 1k spend , but it beats the current 30k miles after 1k spend PUBLIC offer

    It was me!! They sent me a targeted offer for 60K points and a $50 statement credit. I jumped all over that bad boy! LOLHeavenlyFlower wrote:
    I believe someone posted a targeted 60k offer a couple days ago so I think it gets higher than 50k....pretty sure it was this card. Sometimes I read stuff around here and it all blurs together. 

  • Upgrading from MS-7345 Platinum MoBo?

      :D Hello,
    I am looking to possibly upgrade from my present MS-7345 Platinum Motherboard. These are the components I presently have installed:
    •   MS-7345 Platinum Micro-Star International (MSI)
    •   Intel Quad Q6600 Core2 Duo CPU  2.40GHz
    •   Windows 7 PRO 64
    •   Onboard REALTEK HD Audio
    •   8GB DDR2  Memory (MAX AMOUNT)
    •   Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT (256mb) (540MHz Core Clock) (128Bit)
    •   Screen resolution – 1280x768
    •   Thermaltake 700w PSU / ToughPower / 700-Watt / ATX / 140mm Fan / SATA Ready / SLI Ready / Crossfire ready
    •   ATX Coolermaster Case
    I am looking for an upgrade to my existing MSI Platinum, to accommodate a Intel Sandy Bridge i5-or i7 CPU, along with the newer 3.0/2.0 USB, (backwards compatible) and the capability of using the newer DDR3 memory, which I will be able to use more than my present maxed out 8GB DDR2.
     I also want to get a new Graphics PCi card. My present GeForce 8600GT with 256MB and a 540 Core clock speed is slow for today's standards, and also need to upgrade for usage with memory hungry programs like Photoshop and Pinnacle Studio HD Ultimate Video editing programs.
     I am NOT a gamer, nor do I over clock, I’m just one who enjoys video editing, and using Photoshop, and watching streaming videos, without hanging up on my video playback.  I use the screen res of 1280x768 because it just looks good to me using a Viewsonic LCD 2035wm monitor, for my eyes, at least.  I realize the recommended is 1280x1024.
    I really like the MSI customer service and products, my mainframe has been very much trouble free in these past four years, (except for a recent Corsair Twin 2GB Ram stick that went bad, not the slot, so Corsair was generous to send me another 4x2GB DDR2 matched memory sticks, but sadly, now I want to upgrade to the DDR3...but they are awesome anyway!)
    So....maybe someone could recommend a few of the newer MSI MoBo models to look at, that are similar to the MS-7345, which was a breeze to build, to fit my needs.  I’d like to stay with INTEL CPU’s, I have not ever used an AMD CPU, which I hear is far better using graphics, than Intel, but maybe they are equal at this time. Everyone has his/her preference, I know.  
    So for now, I'll stay with the Intel boards until maybe someone here could persuade me otherwise, to switch to the AMD boards.
    I think it cost me about $700-$800+ to build this last puter four years ago, the Q6600 CPU alone was $300.00, and everything else was new too...the ATX case, PSU, GPU, MSI Board, and a few more cooling fans.
     I can't believe that today's technology is forcing me to have to do all of this again so soon after four years, I know I can continue on my existing path using what I have, but feel compelled to stay ahead of the game with all the newer technology out there.
     Thank you for any help!

    My recommendations would be a Z68A-GD55 with an i5-2500. That board is capable of accommodating up to 32GB DDR3-1333/1600 RAM, should you ever require that much. I believe 4 X 4GB would suffice though.
    If you are not a gamer, then the onboard video should be enough to satisfy your video requirements.
    Alternatively wait till about the end of April and get an Ivy Bridge CPU i5-3570K with the Intel HD4000 GPU integrated. This you can then match with a Z77A-GD55 board.
    Depending on the onboard graphics experience, you could get a N550GTX-Ti-M2D1GD5 to enhance the graphics experience.

  • American Express Delta Gold Card

    I have tried to speak to someone in customer service now at least 3 times about getting a CLI, I have been a member since 1984 and have a limit of 1000, I have submitted a request many times for an increase, always rejected. I purchased 6 first class tickets on Delta and couldn't even use the card. The tickets cost 5100. The first 2 times I called after waiting or in the middle of the conversation the phone call got dropped or I got hung up on, tonight I was on the phone for 20 minutes when they transfered me to customer service, not in the USA, after finally getting transfered to the person that I was suppose to be able to talk to about my credit line she told me she did not have a good connection and that I would have to call back.  I am sorry but they have #### poor service, and I am upset!!!!!!!!!!!! Just needed to vent !   Sorry

    well, your scores are high enough for the card. do you use it for anything else? I really cant envision myself using my amex delta gold for anything other than delta stuff....even then my PRG has 3x points for flights booked direct with carrier.  Why dont you google amex PRG 50k from private window.... if you apply and get denied its only a soft pull. This is a charge card that must be paid in full every month...not sure if they would let you run all those tickets thru but you can always see. Same goes with delta, you could get on amex.com and see if they approve a purchase above limit, it must be paid at due date (anything over ur limit).   I have had the card for 2 years, I have used the card every which way I can, light, heavy, PIF, make large payments etc, no luck, the always mention that my score is the reason, when I got the card my score was 626, so at that time I understand why my limit was 1000, but after 2 years really????????  I have not had any late payments in closed to 6 years, 2 of the 3 baddies that I had on my report when I got the card have come off, and my score is about 50 points higher than it was when I first got the card. So I pay the 95.00 fee for a 1000 card that is useless except small purchases because it doesn't have enough spending power. I don't want to give up the card because I have a 32 year member since date.  A couple of years back I could actually purchase a couple of tickets on the card, but since airline ticket prices have increased over the past year of so, the same flight that was about 500 a couple of years ago from my home town is now about 1300, rediculousman that really stinks! I dont think they allow backdating for additional cards anymore after earlier this year. Now you could consider a product change to a no annual fee card. Maybe doing a PC would let you keep the date? The ED would be an option, or BC, or Hilton.... I mean, why care about the 32 year if they hold you down with a 1k limit.. We need more info here on how much you are acutally charging and paying off.... amex does use experian primarily and I see that is your lowest score unfortunately... Sometimes you just have to move on from a card company if they cant work for you. And really....that date...is just that...a date on the card... its not like it was earlier in the year where you could apply for a 2nd, 3rd, etc card and get it backdated and have it not only on the card but I think it also was dated on your credit report.....My PRG and my Delta are back dated on my credit report to 1984, and really help with my AAOA. The new rule came out after I got my cards. Not really looking for new AE cards, just to grow the ones I have. Experian has always been my lowest score, I have 1 baddie, a 6 year old paid judgement that will fall off next year, maybe earlier. I don't know why it remains the way it is. My score on exp hardly ever fluctuates more than 10 points. Utilization about 12% or so.right but wouldnt a product change let you keep the date on the credit report, just not on the card???? If you can pc and keep the date on CR, then switch to a no AF version, and then go to another bank. You may find some luck contacting their executive office, but I have no experience in that.  So you have tried 3x CLI every 90 days for how many years?I have had the delta card since July 2013

  • Delta not working after upgrade from 3.5 to BI7.0

    Hello All,
    We have recently upgraded from BW3.5 to BI7.0 and the standard delta is not working now after the upgade. The name of the Extractor is 0CRM_SALES_ACT_1.
    Did anyone come across this problem before or  can anyone suggest the solution.
    Thanks
    Madhu

    Hi Madhu,
    I've experienced a similar problem with this extractor.  I attempted to Initialize Delta with Data Transfer to no avail.  The job ran for 12+ hours and stayed in "yellow" status (0 records extracted).  The following steps worked for me:
    1.  Initialize Delta without Data Transfer
    2.  Run Delta Update
    3.  Run Full Update and Indicate Request as Repair Request
    Worked like a champ, data load finished in less than 2 minutes.
    Hopefully this will help.
    Regards.

  • Upgrade from PC version of Logic 5 Gold?

    I was one of the unfortunate people who bought Logic 5 Gold a few weeks before Apple bought Emagic and promptly announced that the PC version would be discontinued. Now that I'm a Mac owner I'd quite like to upgrade to Logic 8.
    Does the upgrade version of Logic Studio let me upgrade from my PC version?

    try to instal Logic Gold
    it works on Leopard by using rosetta on Intel macs (native on power Mac G4 and G5)
    I just try to open Logic 5 on my G5
    if Logic Gold can be opened and works without warnings, your XSkey is perfect for upgrade... for sure!
    you can also ask for XSkey driver that should be somewhere in the Apple website ... the drivers show you if your key is in perfect working order or require firmware upgrade

  • Delta Gold Amex

    Just logged onto the Delta website to check my flight and on the advertisement pane on the right it had 50k miles and $50 credit after spending $1000.00 in three months.  Not quite as good as the 60K offer floating around out there but still better than the standard 30k offer. I applied and was approved for 2k limit.  My EX is 669 and I have 5 unpaid baddies for medical last one updated in April.

    Congrat's. I really love my Amex Delta PLAT card. I took full advantage of the 60K offer and $100.00 statement credit. It's definitely a "keeper" for me as I fly Delta frequently. Enjoy the miles !!!

  • Amex Delta Skymiles

    I got an invitation to apply for this card... and I am thinking about it. I could really use some help to afford some plane tickets to take a nice vacation. Can someone please explain the card to me, it says I get 1 mile for every dollar spent... and you need 10,000 in miles to get $100 off a plane ticket. Is that correct? That doesn't seem like a good deal at all, spend $10,000 to get $100 off? Basically that is 1% cash back, which is not as good as my other cards, and is eaten up by the $99/year annual fee. It does say you can get up to 11 miles as a skymiles medallion member... I did a brief search and I can't really figure out what this is. Is this some kind of program you need to heavily pay into to get anything out of it? It does give 35,000 bonus miles which is good for a few hundred bucks... They pull Ex exclusively correct? That is my worse score and I have one disputed collection on there. I have no other negatives, but I do have 2 recent accounts and I think 4 inqs in the last 6 months. Score is 675 or thereabouts. Do they use Ex for the prequalify offers? Thanks for the help.  

    This is AMEX Gold Delta Skymiles, correct? Some of the data you provide is a little off.Are you already flying Delta, already a SkyMiles member? It sounds like maybe not? They pulled EX for mine in June 2013, that seems to be commonly noted. easy enough.The AF is $95, small point. Waived for the first year, the first $95 would be charged on statement #13. For general spend you get 1 SkyMile for each $1 spent. This goes into your Delta SkyMiles Frequent Flyer account, which also earns miles from flights you take on Delta, or if you fly on a partner airline like Alaska and tell them to route the miles earnings to your Delta SkyMiles account.For tickets you buy through the Delta booking site (competitively priced, "best price guarantee" so no reason not to) and pay with your AMEX Delta card, then you earn 2 SkyMiles per $1 spend on those tickets and related items. When getting on the plane, you get a free first checked bag for each person in your entourage, worth $25 each. Second bag still charged, but pack light.AMEX SkyMiles cardholders are also part of the "early boarding" group, along with the Medallion members. This is one of the nicest perks. You can also get into the Delta lounges for a day fee of about $27. The Delta SkyMiles Medallion program is earned by flying x miles and incurring $x spend to get to Silver (25,000 miles + $2,500 ticket spend for example) Gold (more) Platinum and Diamond (something like 125k miles flown in 12 months). If you aren't flying a lot, you may not get to these levels, but it's possible. The 11 Miles quote is the mileage earned per $ spent on tickets. If you are a SkyMiles Frequent Flyer member (regardless if you have a Delta AMEX card) then the tickets you buy go into your SkyMiles account based on your Medallion status:General Member 5 miles / $1 spent buying Delta tickets, Silver Medallion 7miles / $1 spent on tickets, etc. Diamond (if you fly a ton), yes you can earn 11 miles per $1 spent on Delta tickets. In addition to this, if you paid for the tickets purchased through Delta with your Delta SkyMiles credit card, you'd get 2 miles additional per $1 spent on the ticket. The miles that go into your SkyMiles account, either from spend of all kinds on this card, or miles flown/tickets purchased all add up. One option to use the miles is to pay down your ticket cost, which may be 10,000 miles to get $100 off the ticket cost, but you are correct, this is not the best use of the miles. Instead, you want to accumulate the miles, and then use the miles outright for purchasing a ticket. For example, you can book a one-way cross country flight in the US for 12,500 miles, where that one way ticket may cost $200-$400 depending on timing, how far out it is purchased, whether it leaves in only a few days, etc. Sometimes the cost is 20,000 miles one way, depending on popularity, but on the Delta booking tool they make it clear how you can find the lower miles (or lower $ cost) tickets when planning your trip. You can also toggle between Miles vs Dollars as the currency, and see how comparable days and similar flight arrangements cost.The other, longer term use of the miles is to build up even more of them, and then use them for overseas flights. The value of the miles when used for tickets can be anywhere from "a little better" (say 1.2c per mile) to "much better" (I recently booked two one-ways for my daughter to make a round trip, for 32,500 miles and it works out to 1.6c per mile value) and sometimes, on overseas, "a lot better" over 2c per mile. You do have to be patient and shop a bit to make the most of those miles, but 1c is giving up too early

    Thanks.

    It will.  I have exactly that same motherboard and I just upgraded from a clawhammer 3500 to an Opteron 175.  Update your BIOS to latest (1B I think) and you should be good to go.  Note that when I boot, if I don't go into the BIOS, it only sees one core.  But as I run Linux, I rarely ever have to boot. 
    It will work though.

  • Idsm-2 problem: sensor upgrade from 4.1 to 5 or higher

    Hi all,
    I have a problem with my IDSM-2 module. I'm trying to sensor upgrade from IDS to IPS software (from 4.1 version to 5.x or higher).
    If I do this from sensor under "admin user" and use major patch - IPS-K9-maj-5.0-1e-S149.rpm.pkg then I receive error:
    "Error: idsPackageMgr: digital signature of the update file was not valid, use CCO to replace corrupted file ".
    But file "IPS-K9-maj-5.0-1e-S149.rpm.pkg" is NOT corrupted. I cheked it under "service user" with md5sum utility - checksum is correct.

    "Application image upgrade complete. You can boot the image now.
    Partition upgraded successfully"

    chassis - 6509-e, sup - VS-S720-10G + VS-F6K-PFC3C, ios - s72033-adventerprisek9_wan-mz.122-33.SXI6.bin
    maintance software for IDSM-2 module - 3.4(2)m
    Could you please help me? Thanks in advance!

    I have a problem with my IDSM-2 module. I'm trying to sensor upgrade from IDS to IPS software (from 4.1 version to 5.x or higher). If I do this from sensor under "admin user" and use major patch - IPS-K9-maj-5.0-1e-S149.rpm.pkg then I receive error: "Error: idsPackageMgr: digital signature of the update file was not valid, use CCO to replace corrupted file ". But file "IPS-K9-maj-5.0-1e-S149.rpm.pkg" is NOT corrupted. I cheked it under "service user" with md5sum utility - checksum is correct.
    It has been a long time since I've seen a sensor running 4.1 or an upgrade to 5.0(1e) . If I recall correctly, there were some issues with upgrading if you were running a release from the 4.1 train earlier than 4.1(4). Additionally, the upgrade from 4.1 -> 5.0 includes a configuration conversion (due to differences between the software trains), which was prone to failure depending on the presence of certain configuration options.
    Unless you absolutely need to keep the existing configuration, you would save yourself time and effort by simply re-imaging the sensor directly to the desired release. Modern (supported) releases would be either 7.0(5a)E4 or 6.2(3)E4.
    Next, I'm reboot IDSM-2 module and receive:"000133: Sep 7 15:10:18.622 MSK/MDD: %HA_EM-6-LOG: Mandatory.go_bootup.tcl: GOLD EEM TCL policy for boot up diagnostic000134: Sep 7 15:10:18.290 MSK/MDD: %DIAG-SP-3-MAJOR: Module 4: Online Diagnostics detected a Major Error.

Please check sup-bootflash diaginfo file for previous detailed diagnostic result.000137: Sep 7 15:10:19.170 MSK/MDD: %OIR-SP-3-PWRCYCLE: Card in module 4, is being power-cycled 'off (Diagnostic Failure)'000138: Sep 7 15:10:19.170 MSK/MDD: %C6KPWR-SP-4-DISABLED: power to module in slot 4 set off (Diagnostic Failure)"
    I would try re-imaging the sensor once more using the IPS-IDSM2-K9-sys-1.1-a-7.0-5a-E4.bin.gz System Recovery Image file found here, following the procedure described here. If the module still fails to boot after that (still citing a Diagnostic Failure), try moving it to another slot in the chassis (if possible).
    What color is the IDSM-2 Status LED (on front of module) when it is in this state? An RMA may be necessary to resolve this.

    When you are upgrading from 4.6C to ECC6
    Nothing major, follow the same process you'd follow if you were updating PI service packs in R/3 or enhancing data sources. Empty queues in RSA7 and lbwq. Also empty setup tables through lbwg as the upgrade doesn't like it if these tables contain data. This is all on the R/3 side (although you empty RSA7 by running each delta TWICE in BW).
    To transfer queues from lbwq to rsa7, execute jobs through LO cockpit (lbwe).
    Some of your data sources could also be using sm13 instead of lbwq, so do check it out as well.
    For installing ECC 6.0 you required a solution manager key. With out solution manager key you cannot install ECC6.0.
    For ECC 6.0 is called net weaver component here you have ABAP+JAVA stack.
    ECC6.0 supports UNCODE.
    For installing 4.6 you don't require solution manager key. It only having ABAP stack.
    4.6C supports NONUNICODE.
    Major difference is ECC6 is netwear product having WASJAVA+ABAP
    secondly support unicode apart from this we have other diff. you can get form master guide from service.sap.com/instguides.
    Please go through the link that is shown here and if there is any doubts then feel free to ask.
