1. Use the official upgrade route

3. No, usually in this scenario you need to call to remind them you’ve already hit the trigger, their systems don’t spot it AFAIK. If you hit 10k after the upgrade you’ll be fine
Thanks for the helpful response. I will upgrade shortly before hitting the £10,000 spend to avoid having to prompt AMEX to issue the 2-4-1 voucher.
