I just got the code for a year of amazon prime.
2 questions:
1 my current amazon prime will expire in July. I do not want it to renew immediately. can i wait to activate my code till whenever i want it to activate? (I remember dan addressing this somewhere, but i cant find it...)
2 my current account is student prime. if i activate this code now will it wait till my current one expires or will it automticlly renew itself now b/c it is technically not the same thing?
Check the DDMS its all there. If u have student it will cancel that and set up paid Prime. How can u have student thru July, its only a 6 month trial? If u have regular Prime it will extend it.

Is there a one month lag on points being posted to MR? My first statement closed a few days ago and I still have 0 MR. This is my first MR Amex card so I don't know if this is normal.

Points post on the next closing date. You could check pending points if you click on membership rewards

Gotcha. So there is a 1 month lag. That's pretty annoying as I want to take advantage of the 40% Avios transfer with as many points as possible. I wonder why they do that when no other bank does that with their rewards programs.

Ask them if they could post them they are usually nice about it if you paid that bill

Do you have full prime access, movies and all? I have prime student too, but trial version.  ive been holding off on entering code because it will kill off free student. However, it will give me full prime. I dont need movie access but I wouldnt mind it.

The full version of prime student maxes out after 4 yrs when they assume u finished college. I've had it for the full 4 and now I have the Amex Everyday and another yr of prime free. Prob will sign my wife up for Everyday in a few months so she has prime when my extra yr runs out.

Buy a bunch of amazon GCs in small amounts, send to your amazon account?
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

I thought of that, worried it's a F/R risk or a good way to send ED the way of BC.

If I just got the everday preferred  card can I downgrade it to the regular everyday and not pay the annual fee ? And if I do that will I still keep the 15,000 bonus points offer from the preferred or will it go to the 10,000 bonus offer ?
Life is as good as you make it...

Has anyone heard of Amex ever waiving an AF (besides as part of a signup promo?)
