UPDATE: Thanks to Ben for pointing out my vagueness in the below update. On Monday when I first posted about the Amazon Prime offer I posed this as I questioned whether existing Prime members could avail of the offer as well:”what about existing members who can renew in that time and I don’t know the answer yet.

The way Amex explained it to me is that it would work for both new and existing members however for existing members you need to pay for the membership with a card that has never been used to pay an Amazon Prime membership before. So in my case as mentioned below my Platinum Card was targeted for this offer and I did register for it before it was closed due to reaching 5,000 members…RBC British Airways Visa Infinite Card limited time bonus of extra Avios on purchases and lowered spend requirement for the companion voucher
