New Amex statement credits

L
UPDATE ON INCORRECT BONUS POINTS FOR SUPERMARKET SHOP:

I contacted AMEX chat about this as only 1 of my 10 purchases correctly tracked as 2 x points. The seem to be aware of the problem:

"I sincerely apologize that some of the points were not credited, there was an error detected which has been detected, the remediation of any missing points for spend dated 1 - 7 May will be awarded automatically.

While points are normally awarded within 5 business days from qualifying spend, in some situations this may take up to 90 days from offer end date.

Please be rest assured, any points discrepancy will be awarded as soon as possible."
Thanks for that. I did notice anything post 5th May was posted correctly (for me).
 
Made 2 Click & Collect orders for just over $200 from Vintage Cellars
This seems to have flagged my account for credit card verification checks-grrr

So neither payment was able to be processed.
No-one able to process then on first call, promised a call-back.
No reply for an hour so called again and finally processed
I'm highly doubtful the telephone payments will trigger the VC Online offer.
However Amex have usually manually adjusted in similar cases

Buy 4 x $100 e-gift cards then it opens up your options to pay.
I have done it with all my cards (20 cards in total. Supplementary cards included) with the same DJ online account and haven't run into any security issues.
 
yes i saw they now have egift cards they didnt last time I purchased,
only glitch is if the purchase I want becomes unavailable like a lot of clothing I purchase finalise then they send me a message a week later that they are out of stock!

I got this on only 1 account- my platinum charge. Obviously will have no trouble using it :p
 
Got it on my Platinum Charge only. I think this might be AmEx's way of softening the blow of the annual fee a bit, given that most of the benefits are useless at the moment.
Great offer though if you do have access to it.

Yeah most likely. Though it would be even better if our supplementary Platinum Charge cards had the offer too.

Nevertheless, the offer is great!
 
I didn't get it either on mine. Curious though, to get upto $400 back how much do you need to spend?

Looks like a great offer either way!
