Seems like e/o scared registration will open and will fly right over our heads, because whenever there's good deals no one ever posts it on DDF and Dan never posts anything good on the main site-so why even look there... Or maybe it opened up already and within 3 and a half seconds registration was full. Or maybe no one wants people to know in order that registration won't fill up.

/just saying

Btw is registration open yet?? What's the link?

Hate to say this, but I don't really blame Amex. Remember, the point of SBS was to get people to get off their backsides, go outside, and stimulate local small businesses. Some people get around that with certain phone/Internet transactions, here and there... fine. But to have institutions set up call centers basically "farming" the data and automating the process, costing Amex tens of thousands of dollars while not giving one whit of stimulation to the local small businesses as they intended?! Heck, if I were Amex, I'd be pissed too.

I'm not saying I like it. A lot of good organizations could use the money (my yeshiva and the Rubashkin defense team come to mind). But I can't really blame Amex for wanting to exclude such transactions.

I already got a tzedaka letter asking for my Amex card number, and promising it will all be refunded through SBS!

Caveat donator.

Caveat donator.

Donor in English, dunno what the Latin word is, but I doubt it's Donator.

What is stopping me from putting on 75 AU's and getting the credit on every card?

Nothing. Though adding that many AUs (or even just a few) is a known Amex F/R trigger, so consider yourself warned.

You'd be wrong

Thank you.

Passing a FR is no guarantee for not having another one.

A few AU should be ok.
