I can't find GC'S under $150 So it's irrelevant if GC's will trigger the credit.

Saw some reports of amex clawing back gift card purchases, but seems like could be a one-off. Anyone have any issues recently?

Seems like it happens when you close your card. CMIIW.

I didnt hear of that. This is what I saw:

https://milestomemories.boardingarea.com/amex-platinum-saks-credit-gift-cards/

If they claw it back when you cancel the card, that means if you had the card for 2 years, they would claw back $200? Doesnt seem like typical Amex. They would usually just claw back once they realize you found a way around them

1 DP from 2 months ago?
And no report of whether the card was closed down.

They don't look back 2 years, they look back for recent activity.

Anyone know if I purchase $150 item from saks.com using $100 gift card and $50 with Amex Plat, will I have the option to request a refund of $150 on to a gift card if I return the item?
