2 amex membership rewards accounts under same account
« on: August 05, 2012, 07:03:23 AM »
I presently have 2 amex credit cards associated with amex membership rewards:
1) Blue
2) premier rewards gold card

For some reason, in my rewards I am showing 2 separate membership rewards accounts. One associated with my Blue card, hence "membership rewards express" and the other associated with my gold card, as a regular "membership rewards" with transfer to airline option.

The problem is that all my points are in the account associated with my Blue account, hence non-transferable.

This is the first time in 10 years this has happened. (I opened my gold card 3 months ago and it seems that it generated a new account)

Has anyone else experienced this issue?

You can transfer points between accounts, PUTPAC.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Thank you. Called and transferred points. Also cancelled the original account.

Can I transfer even if the account Im transferring FROM has had its associated CC closed?

Just converted my Blue Cash to Blue, so when I close my PRG card I can keep the points. They told me, by default, it will create a second MR account, and I have to pay a $10 annual linkage fee to combine them.

After I close my PRG will the points automatically transfer to my Blue MR account, or will I have to do it over the phone, and, if so, will they let me do it on a shut down account?

Thanks
