Amazon is not accepting this card for using points for purchase. Says its not an MR card.

got the same issue. unfortunately this is my only MR card =/ wonder if this has anything to do w/ the lack of amex offers.

I'm assuming its due to the fact that its a new card and they haven't worked out all their partner information. But who knows for sure.

My first bill closed on July 13th and I still have not received points yet...I chatted with them and they said it takes 7 to 10 business days. I never had this happen, is this normal?

MR spend points always post after second statement close from spend posting.

Not really getting you the regular offers.

So far for this card you can only get the offers available to be synced via twitter or the X2 (1 additional)  points offer with specific merchants like staples, macy's, boxed and a few more.

Can add those offers by scrolling down and clicking on the ones you want here: https://www.americanexpress.com/us/content/membership-rewards-2x-points/
Common sense is not a gift, it is a punishment.
Because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

can anybody confirm this;

the rule for Amex credit line increase for new accounts used to be officially 60 days after card approval.

and the rule for relocating credit limit was 13 months for the card from and 60 days for the card to.

but online it was until recently bypassing the 60 day requirement on both.

in the last few days it seems to me that this changed and it does require 60 day for both,

is there anyone that could confirm?

Any word on multiple cards for different businesses in order to bypass the 50k calendar year limit?
