will amex honor chat rep (possible) mistake?
« on: July 02, 2017, 01:23:37 PM »
I recently applied for the spg amex, having been told by a couple of reps about a year before that serve loads from amex card count towards spend threshold. I recently discovered that this may no longer be the case. I chatted with Kelly who confirmed that I had reached the spend threshold in June and although the points did not yet post, they would within 12 weeks. Will they honor that? I am currently abroad to gc/mo not really an option...

Unfortunately this is the truth, try whatever you can to meet the min-spend otherwise...you can always paypal or venmo a friend, although it will cost the 2.9-3%...

And that's even with a saved transcript and then escalation. Unfortunately it's worthless.
