Does anybody know if the swipe was for 10.00 if that is also good for the credit?
Yes

So if one person took all the spots they would not care? Can't believe how clueless some members are.
they had a cap. The cap wasnt reached until late last night. Amex cant complain about people missing out on the promo.
If i remember correctly someone reported on one of the other threads that an amex rep told him earlier  this week that the cap is 1.2 million. It wasnt spur of the moment.
They knew exactly how much they were in for. And it wasnt a billion dollars. It was 36 million, minus swipe fees, & minus those who didnt end up charging their cards.

Relax, it was probably a mistake. I'm sure it will only take one phone call to sort out...

Yeah I'm in touch with them. Also, 28 swipes are listed as being done on Sunday which prob means after 2 am. We'll see if AMex credits them.

towards the end of the night, when the gift registry was taking forever, it was taking me 1 minute per swipe.

It doesn't. It means it was swiped after 12AM EST (Assuming you're on EST).

If you don't have the credit by now, you're definitely not getting it.

next time you say something with this much impact at least put an emoji for those who didn't realize it is a joke and have a heart attack
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.
