I opened the Hilton Aspire and spent $200 on restaurants hoping for the credit instead of the resort credit.
Any idea how long it can take to post? Also, how can I guarantee that the places I shopped at Amex classify as restaurants? (I bought in Lkwd at Sprinkles, Glatt Gourmet & Creme)
Or direct to post where this is discussed

You're probably safe with the posting date as the promo runs through 8-31.

You can never guarantee what amex classifies as a certain merchant code.  Try a small test purchase and log into your account before fully committing.  Normally if it is a free standing restaurant, and not connected to another business, it should code as such.

Is it possible to transfer visa signature reward points to UR points or to any airlines mileage programs? Also, can real life reward points be transferred anywhere?

I mailed in a $5,000 money order to Amex in CA. USPS is delaying the delivery. Bill is do tomorrow, will just paying the minimum due on a business account affect my credit or credibility with Amex in any way?

New account can take a month or even more to show up. Call the bank right away to notify them that your credit was misused

you can call them explain what happened and they should be able to reverse any interest or late fee charges

I know the answer is no longer relevent for you, but might be for someone else.
Pay the minimum so you don't get 'late fees'.
You'll be charged interest on the rest of the unpaid bill.
You can call and explain and try to get the interest waived.  A call might even get the late fee reversed if you haven't paid the minimum.

I paid the minimum I still haven't received interest. Where and when would I see it?

Is this a charge card? Charge cards aren't actually due on the "please pay by" date.
