Reason is because the amex gift card I bought do not count towards meeting minimum spend

Is it a new thing that amex gift cards don't count?
This has been in place for a few months now. In fact, purchasing gift cards of any sorts is excluded.

Anything PGGM related has been getting clawed back.

Advice.
I've never shredded a card in my life.
They'll make great wallpaper in my office one day.
I'm randomly reading this thread from the beginning... Dan, did you ever end up creating a wallpaper out of your cards?

So buying Simon Mall GCs doesn't work anymore to meet spend and trigger bonus?

Amex reversed my pending bonus points because of a return credit on my account, will I get the points automatically after I meet the required spend again? or do I need to call/chat?
If it benefits even just one fellow DDFer, its worth posting it.
