(also notice their guarantee at the end)

A little strange - They're having the drawing on 11/22, before they even charge the cards (and possibly before registration even closes)

I just added AU's on my cards online. Anyone know how long it takes to get the cards in the mail? Will I be able to register them at the last minute?

Does one have to activate an Amex AU's card before one can use it? Many thanks.

I added several cards in my sisters name (different accounts and she has a different last name) and i think my mailman sent  them back thinking she doesn't live at this address...

I added quite a few and received all the other ones...I don't want to call them because i already added alot and did not get an FR. im thinking something like this may lead to an FR.

Would it be a bad idea to use the cards by seeing the last 5 digits online? i even know the 4 digits on the front because the cards were issued the same day as the others and would have the same 4 digit code on the front.

There's a Chabad House where I ran two charges a few months ago and, although they are set up as a non profit, it comes up as "Business Services - Other Services".
The Rabbi called Amex merchant services and they got the rep to put a note on the system that they're eligible. They HUCA and confirmed that the note is, indeed, on the system.
He is also on the map.

If you are interested in swiping your Amex card for that cause on SBS, pm me and I'll IYH put you in touch.

I am currently ACTUALLY LOOKING at the actual cards.
Under the 1st account (SPG): 3 cards share the same, 2 cards share another, another 3 cards each have a different one.
Under the 2nd account (SPG): 4 cards share the same, another 3 cards each have their own
Surprisingly enough, and I just noticed this, some of the cards from the 1st account and some from the second share the same 4 digit code. The main account holder on the 1st account is myself, on the 2nd it's my wife. The cards that cross-share the same 4 digit code are not under the same AU.
Under the 3rd account (PRG) they all share the same.
Under the 4th account (Blue biz): 2 cards share, 2 cards have different.
Under the 5th account (Blue): All 3 cards different.
Under the 6th account (SPG) All cards the same except main account holder.
Under the 7th account (MB) 2 cards different.

It seems to me that it depends on when you added the AU. foe example on my SPG I have 8 cards total. The primary is unique, the cards I added last year for SBS are the same, and the cards I ordered this year are the same. The same pattern is repeated for my blue cash card.

And now lets look back at what i actually wrote...
i even know the 4 digits on the front because the cards were issued the same day as the others and would have the same 4 digit code on the front.
It goes by the day the actual card (be it primary or AU) was physically issued.
