New Amex statement credits

I have a booking to make with Qatar, does anyone know if it’s possible to split over multiple cards?
No idea if any of these will work;
1. buy Avios then pay with cash and Avios
2. buy a long dated ticket then cancel after some months
3. book a hotel then cancel later.
 
The Man Shake credit hasnt come through as yet and purchased a couple of weeks ago. Anyone else have theirs come through as yet?
Amex claiming not eligible for the credit as the merchant number doesn't match, and that the only address eligible is 9 Help Street, which is the exact address on the invoice 🤔

That is very disappointing. They actually advertised it and you purchased this hoping to redeem offer they advertised. I would escalate this if I were you... You should be entitled to redeem this offer.

They have escalated it for me, as I pointed out that is unfair to make an offer that is impossible to fulfil (by their criteria), as at my end I have done everything right.

That’s typical of Amex support for these offers.
The front line people are often useless if everything doesn’t match exactly. Once you escalate it will be, 99% of the time, fine.

Thanks. Not overly sure what that means.

Surely that's all there is to it?

Many of the offers have other terms and conditions that must be met/followed in order for the statement credit to be paid out (e.g. in-store purchases only).

In @blackcat20 case, all conditions reasonably met, but statement credit denied, hence an escalation for review.

Ordinarily that would be all that is required. I agree! However, this is AMEX in 2024, a mere shadow of what this company used to represent in days gone by... 1 + 1 is not always 2 with them anymore...
