New Amex statement credits

[robd]

At least 4 years old

No, really? I tried via website but don't recall a reference to an app.

Just used the Dan Murphys $15 for $100 purchase to take advantage of the $50 15 year Dimple offer. 2 Bottles for $85 with another $5 via cashrewards. hapy to get it for the same price I bought a couple of 12 year old bottles recently.

Why can't you buy a gift card like everybody else? Part of the fun in getting these Amex credits is to get them in a way that Amex / the vendor don't intend.

To be fair, he did double dip with cashrewards

Sorry. I misread. I meant in reference to on the spot claim.

Hooray for the Dans offer. Came up on my Plat Edge but not on Amex Connect for the Nab Amex yet.

The other way around for me. It was in Amex Connect for both of the bank-issued cards that I currently have, but not in my Amex account for my Platinum Edge or Qantas Discovery. Since added them via the link.

My CommBank Gold Awards card was just sitting in a drawer, waiting for the fee refund and the 40,000 QFF points. If I'm lucky, the fee refund will appear before the end of the month, and then I'll only have a $34 credit balance to get rid of.

Yes he did - fair point. I was probably a bit harsh.

A new quite unusual offer on my AMEX today. Spend at any participating HICAPS practitioner location to receive a $15 statement credit each time, at up to 3 different locations. Limited to the first 30,000 Cards to register. No minimum spend on the card to get the $15 although I usually find the gap payment is well over $15.

I doubt this offer will be easy to use. Most of my medical practitioners don't accept AMEX and some don't even have HICAPS terminal.

Thanks for posting.

The four of us need to go to the dentist for the regular clean/checkup ... we have sufficient AMEX cards to take full advantage at the one dentist. Will come in handy if we need additional work over and above the standard gap free service.

Too slow?

The HICAPS takes away the option for points on the cc, so for small jobs it's worth it, for an expensive job (not hard at the dentist), you would not get any points. EDIT, I should clarify, I mean there's no points for the HICAPS amount. I hope that makes sense.

Thanks for that. If need be, I'll buy $16 worth of something

Hopefully this is the correct thread for a bonus points credit - just rec'd email invite for 'Hardly Normal':

I WONDER how we know if the item being purchased fits into the T&Cs.

I got this email as well and registered. Looks like it is targeted. I was not able to locate the offer on amexconnect.

I wonder what's actually included

 

[get me outta here]

I'd run out right now if it included a Miele washing machine, but that is expressly not included.

Correction: Apple NOT included. We need to be sure of what IS included.

So, if these and all other Harvey Norman divisions (commercial, furniture, bedding, bathroom, flooring and online purchases), are NOT included, what can be left

It is not on my Offers and Places either.

Almost certainly nothing you would want to buy I expect!

 

[penegal]

I saw the Harvey Norman one... I have very little desire to shop there.

 

[Cynicor]

In the same way that gift cards are always excluded, I doubt they know what you are buying. Just get the miele and see.

During the last Amex statement credit offer a few months ago I bought an AEG machine from HN. HN are merely an agent for Electrolux who distribute AEG. I didn't get a HN receipt but from Electrolux. It's highly likely the same type of arrangement exists with Miele.

I also bought a bed which I spread over a few cards and received all credits.
