New Amex statement credits

[lilkid28]

Can I ask what you bought? I'm looking at buying a few exxy bottles, as I got plenty of quaffers already

Bought a Grange, Krug, and a Giaconda Chardonnay.

Globird is south of the border (Victoria) only.

you mean North?

 

[QF WP]

No, they mean (correctly) south of the border as they live in SYD. It's north for you though @Steady but your border is an ocean

Merivale offer is very poor compared to last November's spend 40 for 20 back.

Agree. Reminds me that I need to use the last few gift cards I bought last year.

I let the Amex Travel offer lapse as I could not make it work. Too many glitches on website with false availability.

Hyatt - spend 650 for 130 credit.

Just checked the hotels and it includes HK, Singapore, Thailand and Japanese hotels - not just the AU ones. coughulative spend as well - pretty decent offer especially for road warriors with multiple Amex.

I also had a 75/15 Forever New and an "up to 15%" off via a link to Agoda

Ditto. I kept getting a message about not being able to contact the supplier. Gave up.

Your discussion here reminded me of this offer. I recently booked a hotel using my Charge and wondered where the credit was. Of course, this offer wasn't on my Charge but was my Edge and Reserve. Should have used the Reserve as I would have still received the full serve of points and got the credit - doh!!!

My error.
Either way its pretty unappealing

Agoda is my 'go to' site for booking accomodation. Rarely do I find the same hotel cheaper elsewhere once all discounts etc are taken into account (and I search pretty deep once I am ready to book).

The recent Amex travel statement credits are one exception however...

Can you stack this Agoda discount with Cashrewards' 5% off?
I was looking at the Agoda Amex deal but the redemption dates are 01 August 2018 to 10 September 2018 for stay period 01 August 2018 to 31 March 2019.
Unfortunate because I was looking at April 2019 in Japan, which would've been 10% instead of 12% but outside of the date anyway.

Useful info. I've taken to Rocketmiles for Alaska points but admittedly these are for reimbursed bookings

Given the Amex sale fares are accessed via a link, I think not. May also mean the Amex offer is not an additional 12% off best Agoda price

Edit: the link doesnt seen to be Amex-specific so ignore above-may well stack

I think you need to pay at check out not prepaid .

"......spend $650 or more, in one or more transactions, in-person only at participating Hyatt Hotels locations by 30/11/2018....."
