I’m trying to enroll in Hertz President’s Circle through my Amex Platinum, but the link on the benefits site isn’t working properly. I’ve got a reservation tonight and was hoping to get the status before then.

I called Amex support, but unfortunately, they weren’t too helpful in resolving the issue. Is there a quicker way to activate the benefit or have it manually linked to my Hertz account?

I used the benefits in January. And then downgraded.
If I upgrade now do I get the benefits?

Targeted: Does this work?
Stacking offers to get about 20 percent back, on 2,500 delta spend on the BP.
Amex Offer 1: 250 off 2500 flights spend thru amex travel.
Amex Offer 2: 100 off 500 delta spend thru amex travel
(I'm assuming they stack)
Offer 3: New employee card get 7,000 bonus point for 4000 spend (adds about 1.6 points extra per $1 spent)
4: BP has 5x points on amex travel.
Will all this work?
Can you use employee card to pay on the amex travel portal, and if yes, does it earn the 5x?
And will the delta stack with the general airline Offer?

Amex offers are card specific so you would need to have those offers on the AU card.

How can I take advantage of the 2500 spend to get $500 back if I don't need to spend $2,500 in 3 months ?

Personal or Business? Did you receive an email that they were ‘approved’? On business at least there’s an ‘approval’ needed can take a day (maybe more?) sometimes
