Yes. I got this on Plat Reserve, but nothing else.

Nope missed out on all 12 cards.

Although not too bothered as I cleaned up on the more generous offer from BP about 4 months ago.

How does one play this one - do gift cards work?

Some stations have them but I ran into some major cashier ineptitude last time I tried

And partial payment with them is difficult (when you use them to buy fuel).

Buy $60 of fuel, twice. The 16% discount is going to more than make up for the possibility that BP might be more expensive than your usual petrol station.

I assume this was from the QF 20% back deal which is supposed to be capped at $200. Please advise what statement credit you actually receive as I may spend well over the $1000 mark if the $200 cap is not being enforced.

I'd be interested to see if you get more than the $200 maximum.

Can confirm the email was correct!

Thank you for the confirmation amaroo. ​How much to push the envelope is now the question? Probably not too much.....

What a way to start the day! Just booked more QF flights, have a Hilton stay tonight, booked a Pullman for next week, and have a Meriton booking lined up ready to go. The best part - will get to rinse and reload all again

Remind me to message you next time

Before or after I miss the boat?

Perhaps I should buy a canoe?

That's not my experience. Never had an issue.

Ideally before

 

[Plutonus]

I've had some cashiers refuse any additional payment by anything other than cash, ie $25 gift card, $30 fuel, they will only take $5 note. Other cashiers don't care if balance paid by another card or credit card.

Same, had cashiers say that payment could only be split between one card and cash.

What denomination gift cards can you buy from BP?

 

[blackcat20]

What denomination gift cards can you buy from BP?

I think they are in increments of 50.

 

[Dr Ralph]

$25, $50 and $100 available.

Just a quick question on the Hilton offer. Ive got a total of 4 cards with this offer which id like to use for a 4 night stay. It's easy enough to book each individual night on a different card, but the T&C state that you must pay when checking out (in order to get the $150 credit). and that...

• Gift Card purchases and pre-paid online bookings are excluded."

There are some rooms where its an early bird rate with no cancellation - which do require prepayment. Surely amex can't tell the difference as long as its a 'hilton purchase'?


Has anyone tried to split up the bill on multiple cards on the way out?

Many Thanks for the help.
