starpoints posted for me in the past also. this one was kind of puzzling; valid for promo spend but no MR points?

My (non-pass) spend hasn't posted either, maybe it just takes time. I haven't paid my bill yet, have you?

I'd say it's worth a shot. What do you have to lose?

Edit: FYI, it officially expired 11/30/2010

haven't paid yet. non-pass spending is pending. pass spending not even pending. promo bonus earned (a few days after statement closing)

If it isn't even pending, maybe it hasn't posted to your account yet and it will post to your account (and you'll be credited MR) next statement cycle.

They did extend the waived monthly fee until 10/2011 or something, so they're definitely going to give this some time to catch on.

Does that mean I should try it even though I have four pass cards? Hmmm, makes me wonder.

For the record, I'm pretty sure I used the code PASS50 ($50 credit) after it expired, but I still got it, I wonder if it still works...

Hi there!
Im new arnd here, so if someone can please fill me in, I would appreciate it. It seems to me that you can get *woods points by loading an amex pass card, and then you get the money by withdrawing it from an atm? is it only worth it if you get the $25 signup bonus?
Thanks in advance!

Indeed, it'll end up costing you at least 1.25 cents per starpoint (due to ATM $200 maximum and ATM fees), until they begin charging a monthly fee in October of 2011.

Is it worth it to you? you decide. Same as when you see orange juice for $3.99 at the supermarket.

The $25 is once per PASS card.

You can put anyone's name there just put a birthdate that would make them a teen, vda'l
Would they match the b-day of the "teen" to the b-day of the "parent"? I think  a 20 yr. old having a 15 yr. old is a little stretch of the imagination! ::)

If you read some of the other comments apparently any birthday works.
