American Express Miles Platinum Sign Up Bonus upped to 1,000 Reward Miles

This is the increased sign up bonus I mentioned about 2 or so weeks ago. Looks like Amex held off on releasing it so that it wouldn't come out the same week as their new Air Miles Reserve Card. Now it is here and the offer matches that of the Reserve Card which I find a little surprising they make it the same as outside of some the extra benefits that the Reserve Card offers this card is cheaper yet earns the same amount Air Miles Rewards Miles (Sign up bonus and earn rate). I still have to confirm this,  but apparently this level of sign up bonus for the Platinum Card will remain as standard from this point forward.

Here are the full details on this offer and the card:
