10,000 bonus points per 20 transactions

Nah, the same one I assume you have. It does also place me on the 10T / 5K promo. Actually, you should be due to receive some points by now - yes?

Different letter.

I had a letter in October confirming that I was in the 5k/5. Which was what I was postcarded for (though amexin the October letter was not aware of it).

Then a letter in Dec suspending me.
Them my latest Jan letter unsuspending me and stating I would have all points earnt pad with 2-3 weeks....with the 3 weeks almost up.

A side question.
Do Amex have a page which lists current points offers or credit card offers so i can keep it bookmarked.
Hopefully this might help prevent me from missing out on future deals like this (not that i see something like this happening again)

Ones like this would be at:

www.americanexpress.com.au/oops

The page doesnt exist?

The page doesnt exist?

Exactly.

Future promos like this will not either.


1/ Because it was way WAY too generous. It was a mistake.
2/ Because it was meant to only be a private targetted offer to those mailed postcards (but amex through ineptitude made ita public offer)

Hence

oops !!!!

Ona more serious note, many of Amexes offers are targetted and do not directly appear on public Amex pages. Forums like this can turn them up as long as T&C does not stop outsiders from making use of them.

oh oh oh (sorry, cant help myself when I am having so much fun.)

Rodger, The frequent flyer store has not sold Sony Plasmas in months... Maybe an LCD panel??? small 20" pink set maybe???

Umm, the FF store would have never sold a Sony Plasma.
Sony only has LCD TVs.

[Flashware]

When?
There has been no sony plasmas in the model range for at least a year if not longer

At least 1-2 years ago, but they definitely did exist.

They indeed did, but production stopped and went solely to LCD's in November 2005 (around then IRC) which means the last product range was early 2006.... a loooooooong time ago

Hence the "at least" and yep, I remember reading the news article! There was another company that did it at the same time, Sharp maybe? But I digress......

I wasnt meaning to come across as if I was correcting you, if so, sorry.

Main purpose was to emphasise that "Wodger" (lol) must be a time traveller as well...
with all those points I guess they could get you anywhere.... anytime

Some good news ....

I earned 5 million points .... easily crushing rogerbranch's "achievement" ...

Actually no ..... That was a joke ....

Anyway, some really good news. I was enrolled in MyReward program with a letter from Amex confirming that we are enrolled in MyReward program (to correct administrative error from Amex putting us in MyBonus program). However they only provided us with half the points we are entitled. After lodging a complaint to Amex (and then BFSO), Amex wrote a letter to us today stating that we are in MyBonus promotion.

Naturally we called Amex and complained. At the same time our mobile phone rang and an Amex CSR called us to clarify that it was an error, as well as apologising for the mistake, and we will receive our other half of all the points we entitled by Tuesday (subject to business approval).

So to their credit they are going to award us the points, even though it did take a complaint from us at the first place to get it. So for everyone else, please do not give up chasing the points that you are entitled to.

Also now that Amex are finally honouring our points, we will continue to use them for a long time (well at least need to keep the MR account open!) .....

I want to thank Amex for providing such generous promotion (and I know it "should" never happen again).

Also I want to thank www.frequentflyer.com.au for providing such forum so that a lot of people benefit from this info. For all contributers and administrators, please give yourself a clap
