To the credits you can put on one account. Answer is officially unlimited.

PSA: For all those purchasing airbnb gift cards, you will have to shell out the money until amex fixes their system. They are NOT, as of now manually crediting for the offer as has been in the past (if someone has got credited please post here) supposedly there was a memo sent out saying to not manually credit THIS offer (could also be a case of DROPR/DROCR).

I've been doing this for over a decade. You don't think I can tell the difference between a hard rule and a dumb rep?

Woah  ;D ;D 

Didn't say you can't tell the difference, though you said you were not relying on a rep - hence the curiosity as to what you are relying on.

5k limit on number of credits an Amex customer can receive or 5k limit on number of gift cards you can add to an Airbnb account? (Seems we were talking about the former but want to confirm)

For life of the account, or when you use 100 you can add another 100?

Anyone got a rep to manually credit them yet? Looks like some of us are going to have to shell out a few thousand dollars...


Maybe suspend some of the charges?

Looks like noone has had it automatically credited.
It does say it should be covered in the T&C, so technically this _should_ be OK, but realistically how difficult will it be to get Amex to credit multiple cards manually?
