I logged into my Amex account earlier and there was nothing that stood out advertising the bonus as has previously happened.

I just spotted the for recipient only under the Airline section rather than the General T&Cs.

I got the 25% offer on my plat account. Tody Mr DL has had a 20% offer for (essentially) the same promotion on his gold account.
For those who rarely get offers sent it may be worth refreshing your profile options ( I referesh them regularly) - Mr DL was moaning last night that he never gets offers so I told him to referesh his mailing preferences.
This morning he got the email :).
Whilst it's not as good as some of the offers MR have offered in the past 25% is better than nothing ( especially for bolstering a family Avios account :) ).
