Do you know if they accept applications pan India going forward? Or still restricted to a few cities?

Still no expansion across India. May add other cities other than Tier I and II.

Well they're never going to include my rural village then.

Just talked with Amex team. They confirmed that they are working on back end for resuming services. They expect process to go live next month earliest. They will notify you about it if you share your basic details.

So, We have to wait for at least another 3-4 weeks for their service resumption. Right?

If it is confirm, then I had to apply magnus now. I kept Magnus on hold becoz assumed amex will start on-boarding in Sep. wasted a month.

They said it will definitely need two more weeks to get ready for rollout.

During Diwali sales and all
I got mails form AmEx of 6X reward points on Plat travel
Does gold charge get better bonus point offers?

That was different, they used to give 20X, 15X offers instead of the usual 2x, 3x, 5x etc. This was same across all their cards.

By 6X i meant 6 time multiplier on 3X (of plat travel) but anyway thanks for the clarification

That's not how the offer works with Amex. Eg: when they give 15X offer, it replaces the 3x. You won't get 15*3 = 45X. Just 15X

Any unofficial spends target for fee waiver on gold charge? 🤔
Also if I get inifinia (add-on) does gold charge have any value?

No such offers. You reach out to them when the charge the annual fee and negotiate for waiver though. Gold charge gives points on utility and fuel spends too. Unsure about Infinia. But isn't Magnus the flavour of the month.
