New Amex statement credits

[SYD]

I find @SydneySwan the most prompt and reliable service for Amex offers

They’re up with the birds checking like a hawk - especially Tue and Thu AM!

Not to detract anything from the amazing job @SydneySwan does, but the transfer bonuses don't come through as Amex Offers so they're not always discussed in this thread

For those interested, activated VAEFNO offer on three cards, and bought one $300 CG&MGC on each at Myer Melb Bourke St on Friday.
* no emails
* 1x card showed redeemed yesterday
* all 3x transactions posted today
* 2x $50 cashbacks posted today, both now shown redeemed (incl one from yesterday)
* 1x card no signal of success yet

Last card now received the cashback, but still shows the offer as "active" rather than "redeemed" for some reason.

But this thread is called 'New Amex statement credits' so transfer boni strictly-speaking are off-topic!

so just to clarify, rather than 5 * $60 transactions receiving $10 each, you did 1 $300 transaction and received the full $50 cash back?

Yes

 

[bernardblack]

It's pretty standard for Amex Offers with "up to X times" wording to work like this.

 

[N0mad]

Yes

thank you, saved me some extra $$$ as i'm about to wonder down to Myer.

Tempting, but I’m not rich enough to deal with the fallout if it all goes pear shaped

Has anyone purchased dj gift cards online and got the credit this time

No, and from memory this wont work. But I did make a purchase at david jones online site on 19/10 and haven't got any credits yet.

 

[tinkybelle]

I did a Myer purchase online that has not received credit yet either anyone done a Camilla gc credit

 

[bellroy26]

Purchased from Myer online last Sat, got the credit today.

You CAN buy DJs Gift Cards online and get the credit. Did it three times out of four (one was blocked as it was the third purchase in a day and it was being sent to someone else; tried again two days later on a different Amex, sent to myself and same account, and it worked). YMMV

 

[tinkybelle]

Yes definitely does not say no gift cards except for Myer and a couple of others so maybe Camilla gc works

$50 VAEFNO credit posted today, after shopping in person on Monday.

 

[kpc]

Mine too. Are you brave enough to buy a $300 Coles Myer GC?

I bought 3x $300 CMGC today...each $300 was a spilt payment of 5x$60.

I got the offer on 2 of my Amex cards and +1 on her only Amex card.

There were no CMGCs left on the GC stands in Sydney's Myer store today. Just as I was about to leave empty handed, I asked a staff member and she fished a few out from a draw by the cash register.
