It doesn't. It means it was swiped after 12AM EST (Assuming you're on EST).
except that the swipes that I know I did between 12 am & 2 am are listed as occurring on Saturday. So AmEx probably lists the transactions using MST & if it says Sunday then it was after 2 am est.

Take it easy. They say it could take up to 90 days. It's been mentioned many times last year it posted in less than a week.

If you think we're having fun here these days, can you imagine life as an Amex phone rep in the week following SBS? ;D

If you were a rep would you rather speak with people who knew more than you or less than you?

I think that in general its easier dealing with people who know less than you (even if they think they know more).

My credits still didn't post, and I didn't receive the emails from Amex.

DO I need to call customer service? I did got confirmation emails when I registered the cards

You could call or wait the 90 days & then call.
Did you swipe in a place that qualifies ?

I didn't check to see if they are listed on the map, but it should qualify, it's a local grocery.

Guess I'll call them when I have the extra 5 minutes...

I swiped at a local store that was not on the map. When i called Amex, they said that they were not registered, but chat said that they were. In the end, i got the credits, as they were registered.
Lesson: DROPR
