I called to confirm my eligibility park inn international before I kept spending on the card.  Much to my dismay, I had canceled The Business Gold Rewards Card® from American Express on May 24th, 2012.  That means that I had to wait until after May 25th, 2013 to be able to get another bonus on a Business Gold, Green, or Platinum card.  Unfortunately, I applied for the card about 21 days too soon .
I tried begging with American Express to see if they could override park inn international the bonus since I was soooo close to waiting 12 months.  In the end, they said they were sorry, but there s nothing they could do.  Now I need to wait 12 months after I cancel this card before I ll be able to get another bonus.
