Made a purchase @ off 5th and paid with my platinum via PayPal.
It was coded as "PAYPAL *SAKSFIFTHAV" and a day later I got a $50 Saks credit
Found it interesting for 2 dp:
1. PayPal can or used to get the credit
2. May be a workaround to get the credit at Off5th
Any ideas how it might trigger it in the Saks off 5th physical store?

Is there a way to use PayPal with amex plat in store?

I've been receiving a lot of offers from Amex lately, which I've been ignoring / tossing. Today  I received a big fancy envelope with a whole presentation binder inside, inviting me to join business amex plat for 190k points and a 10k spend. so I'm tempted.
I currently have a business AmEx which I've had for a number of years with a different legitimate businesses and actually plan to downgrade. I also have a personal plat. I don't see any specific language in the offer about having had the card before - have they removed it? what precisely am I looking for?

I received a mail offer for 150k points (+ 10k points for employee card) for Amex Biz Plat. Is this a great offer? Not looking for this card at this time, but if it's a great offer, maybe I'd do it...

If I had this card several years ago, and still got the offer in the mail, will I get the SUB? Does it matter if it's for a different business?

Is FHR credit able to be used by AU?

Please forgive me from the bottom of your hearts if this has been asked before: is there any way to cash out on the adobe and indeed.com subscription they offer for the card if I don’t need it myself?
nothings impossible- the word itself says Im possible

30 days is standard. Afterwards is prorated. If you call you may find a sympathetic CS to do a full refund, but don't rely on it.

Are you sure it's prorated for cancelling? I thought only for downgrading.

Find someone to trade with- you use their $200 credit now with your $200, and they use your first 2022 credit in Jan (or vice versa).

Or buy someone's $200 credit now to get to $400.

Try here.

It is a very good offer if you triple dip and can meet the spend. It's not unusual now but still very good. If you wait till mid Jan fee goes up and you lose the triple dip.
