I ordered a dell product and got my credit on my Amex Bus Plat, and i refused delivery when it came way late. the refund didn't process for another couple of months of complaining but it finally did last month. the credit was never reversed, does that happen normally (and i should order other dell products before year end to catch the value, since it takes months for dell to actually deliver 3rd party products they say u will get next week)?
anyone seen dell credit reversals months after a return?

I just got hit with my BP AF $595.
I see I got a APPRECIATION CREDIT for $200, did anyone get more than that?
Is the $200 airline credit, and dell credit, per calendar year or card member year?

When did you get the appreciation credit?
I was just charged the 595 and see no credit

I'm not sure if it has been reported, but after speaking to chase and got a $250 retention offer, I decided to call Amex for my platinum and see if there is anything

The rep offered me a $500 statement credit for committing to stay another full year with Amex

Same thing happened to a relative of mine. And that was after receiving the $200 schwab appreciation bonus.

If the accounts are linked, the credit will appear automatically every month.

If I understood your question correctly,
You have to make a minimum $15 purchase to get the credit, you won't get a $15 credit just by having the card.

AMEX is telling me I signed up for the 75k bonus, but not the 10x on grocery and gas. I signed up through @Dan 's link, and I'm sure it was there. they said they'll open an investigation, any other recourse?

I'm not sure if this is what you meant, but it is incorrect.

Once you add your platinum card into your Uber wallet, it will link your accounts and you will receive $15 of Uber cash every month.

The way I understood his question was: "do you automatically get it every month"= Does Amex give you a $15 credit on your CC automatically.
and of course the answer is, no. you get $15 to spend at uber, (No minimum spend required, correct.) you don't automatically get a $15 credit on your bill every month.
(Reading it now, it doesn't make much sense  ;D)

@greatdeals can you confirm what your question was?

It's automatically in your account on the first of every month.

Can someone else use my card in his account to get the $15 monthly credit?
