New Amex statement credits

[jc14]

Just a warning for anyone wishing to purchase gift cards so they can utilise this offer across multiple cards that A) there is a 0.94% AMEX surcharge and B) gift cards can't be used immediately, rather there is a 72 hour delay before they are "active".

Got caught out on the 72 hour delay so fingers crossed that Webjet don't increase the prices between now and Wednesday.

Watch out on using discount codes as well though, my last cashback got rejected

Did you pay directly with the merchant or via a 3rd party website or payment (eg PayPal). If the former, it should have been ok - AMEX just see the final amount charged by the merchant? If the later, then all bets are off.

I got caught out using PayPal for something - can’t remember what but something I used PP before but forgot to manually use my CC details…

Did you get the previous Dell one?
I didn't get the one you mention.
Was thinking of getting gift cards but didn't find any option after a quick glance.

Has anyone had any luck receiving the credit for a prepaid overseas FHR booking?

Data point: prepaid overseas FHR booking part paid with $450 TC and the remainder (touch over $500) paid with card immediately triggered the email.

Also added HH number through at time of reservation, booking immediately showed up in Hilton app - solid improvement.
