Re: 10,000 bonus points per 20 transactions
There's an even better code to use "MYREWARD".
You are now registered to receive 5,000 Membership Rewards Bonus Points for every 5 transactions you make each month from 1 September to 31 December 2008, with no limit to the Bonus Points you can earn. |

Abusive... Yeah Unethical... Maybe Fraudulent... I don't think so. Its not prohibited by law. I don't think this is defrauding anyone. Others may have different ideas. Apart from maybe revoking your account and blacklisting you there is nothing in doing whatever scheme that breaks any laws. Amex made this offer, and they didn't specify boundaries. Maybe they should. This would eliminate any such scheming. Maybe the whole point of this promotion is for Amex to prove that their cards are widely used? I definitely think the bonus that they offer is way too excessive, and I don't encourage any abuses, but they should be including such things as minimum spend and a monthly cap. Similar to the woman in England that made the news a year or so ago, when she was upset off at her husband, and put up his car for sale for $2 Cheers |

Re: 10,000 bonus points per 20 transactions
Thanks. Just signed up for the 5,000 pt per 10 transaction bonus.
I ahve both the Qantas FF AMEX and the Gold AMEX credit card. I can ONLY sign up this bonus for my Gold AMEX, so I confirmed that Qantas FF AMEX is NOT eligible. Will wait and see your comments before signing up for the 10,000pt bonus in my same account!! |

You miss my point. I am not saying that they will prosecute you or anything similar....in fact I very much doubt they would....which is why I bolded the abuse aspect. ,,just that if you "abuse" the scheme that you might be busily flying through transactions up till Dec 31 and going toa fair effort to maximise your transactions, just to find your 3 months of effort gain you zero bonus points. Thing is you will not know till 8-10 weeks after the first month finishes, or even 8-10 weeks after Dec 31. So think of it more as a risk analysis. Do you want to gain a very healthy bonus, guaranteed, just by maximising small transactions...or do you want to risk it all for possibly a high balance that may be denied down the track for "abuse". The gamble and "which bet" is yours to choose. Last edited by lovetravellingoz; 17th September 2008 at 07:49 PM. |

Those at the "AFF Meets" dinner in August would remeber Luisa say something along the lines of "Every morning we eagerly log on to AFF and scan the threads".
Also, is referred to earlier by Oz_mark, she indicated "Look for something in October". Now betwixt SWMBO and I there are three Amex accounts in our portfolio. Due to transaction per month basis, each of these individual accounts will been a perfect candidate for each one of the three promos. However, the most recent one shines: Quote:

Re: 10,000 bonus points per 20 transactions
i don't want get people disappointed , but you can't have all 3 codes at the same time. this has been confirmed with a rep from Amex.
therefore you need to ring Amex, and clearly ask them to put you on the reward you want. please pass this around. |

Will have to call them tomorrow and ensure that I'm on the MYREWARD 5000 points per 5 transactions code. Although, if they're offering 1000 bonus points per transaction (5000 per 5 transactions), they're obviously throwing around a LOT of points here. This is incredible - I just effectively earned 5000 points just on the way home (Woolworths, Woolworths Liquor, Chemist, Supacheap Auto, and Red Rooster). Wow. Business Class RTW flights for 2 on Star Alliance (via SQ Krisflyer) here I come! |
