When reporting a new offer please post here http://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=49544.0

To take advantage of an Amex offer, first save the offer to your card, then do the spending. There are a few ways to save offers to your card; http://www.amexoffers.com/ has links to most of them. Depending on the offer and depending on your Amex card, it may be available via none, one or more than one of these methods:

americanexpress.com web site
Log into the americanexpress.com web site. If you get the new version of the site, scroll down to Amex Offers & Benefits at the bottom of the page. If you get the old version, click the Amex Offers For You tab. You can also see on this web site which offers you already saved (even if you saved them via a method other than this web site) and which offers you already redeemed. This method is only available for Amex credit and charge cards issued by American Express.
The maximum number of offer that the site will show you is 100. If you already have 100 available offers, there may be other offers that they are prepared to show you, but are not showing you because you already have the maximum. To see additional offers, save one or more of your available offers and then refresh the list (F5 in most Windows browsers).

Saving an offer on AmericanExpress.com to one of your cards will automatically make it unavailable for the rest of your cards linked to the same login. The way to get around this is by opening all of your cards in separate tabs and then saving the offer in each.  **

**Sign into different tabs?!?
Sign onto your Amex account. card #1 is on the page.  scroll to offers. note a good one. 
Open  tab 2: amex.com (or with Chrome, right click on the first tab and choose Duplicate) > you are already logged in.> go to my accounts > click on card #2  on the top of the page. scroll to offers. check for same good offer. 
Open tab #3. repeat as for tab #2. Repeat as necessary.
THEN: on tab #1 - click 'save' .  Then on tab #2 click 'save' . Then on each tab.
If you so desire: check on each card's 'saved offers' to check that it's there.

This link should take you to the Amex old layout,
which is much easier to scroll down through all the offers.

Amex® Mobile app
This method is only available for Amex credit and charge cards issued by American Express. The login is the same as for the americanexpress.com web site.

Dedicated web site for enrollment
Some Amex offers, most notably Small Business Saturday, but also NYC Restaurant Week, Home Depot, Amazon and DirecTV, offer a dedicated web site where you could enter your card information to enroll.

For Bluebird/Serve cards
Amex offers can be saved via the bluebird.com web site. Go to Plan & Manage > Amex Offers. Amex offers can also be saved via the Bluebird mobile app.

For cards not issued by American Express (such as Amex cards issued by Citi, USAA, PenFed, Bank of America, etc.)
Add offers to your card at this site: https://www.americanexpress.com/us/network/shopping.html
You will be prompted for your name, card number and email address.

I paid my verizon home bill and got an email from both the fios offer and cell phone offer. I'm sure I won't get both credits but I hope they credit me the right one ($25).

I got around that pesky message by paying via the mobile app.

I'm still stuck with a bunch of $ on my account which they refuse to cash me out for, short of closing the whole account. Any other ideas how to extract?
Close the account and then enroll in new service if you still need FIOS.

Why are you sure?

Are the gift cards active?

You think the charges will fall off?

Get a one-time $50 statement credit by using your enrolled Card to spend a total of $250 or more in-store at Bloomingdale's or online at Bloomingdales.com by 3/30/2015.

Got it on my Personal Credit (not charge) cards including AU's, not on any business

If you buy this Nespresso machine and it's shipped to NY it will come out $200.01

Yup. If you look more you'll see that DealChaser and I were having a bit of a contest who can wrack up more FiOS credits...
So we can get credits for more than 3 times for a credit card, right?

How many did you order? Check your order on Staples website - they may have cancelled the orders if there were too many ordered placed.

Thank you! I found some activation codes, too.  I'm going to try to get gmail not send them to spam in the future.

Um, not much to try.  Gmail asks you that explicitly when you move it.
