I had the same experience with them, when I told them I wasn't interested in paying for an AU card they offered me a green AU card with no fees

Are there any data points on the need to activate AU cards? I know Dan said that it is not necessary, but I am wondering if anybody else has experience about this.

If I sync a card and get a confirmation email that its synced with twitter, does that mean its activated?

I just took my AU card to the grocery store to buy a couple small things, and it worked even though I did not activate it.

Seems to be working for everyone. Question is has it NOT worked for someone ?

Is it standard that when you add AU on AmEx website it says "Pending verification you will receive card ....."?

I don't recall seeing the words "pending verification" when adding them recently but tonight it said that.

Did I just not notice those words in the past or did something change?
