    2000 Bonus points for setting up Direct Telstra transfer

    I just received by snail mail an offer for 2,000 bonus points if I direct debit the Telstra phone on amex.

    The terms say the offer is only to the addressee and there's a 'limit of one bonus per cardmember'. The terms say ''please allow 6-8 weeks for points to appear from the date of enrolment".

    So is Amex really saying their earlier terms allowed multi-enrolments??

    Is Amex saying the 6-8-10 weeks they want for the 5k/10k/20k bonus promos should have been very prominent?

    It could not possibly be the same promotion as the 5T/10T/20T promotion. If in doubt call Amex.

    I am not likely to receive the Telstra direct debit promotion as I already have direct debit in place for my Telstra bill....

    No...multi-enrolements in DIFFERENT promos are fine and always have been.

    Problem here is that Amex is deeming the bonus per tx to all be the ONE promo.

    Telstra, BP, Cafe Promo are all different promos that have overlapped with the bonus tx promo.

    It is extremely rare for me to receive any targetted promo from Amex so I was excited to get the Telstra offer today. I am not a fan of direct debit but for 2000 points they had me.

    I read it once.. I read it twice... Three times...

    What do I get, normal points, no bonus, just the "convenience". Well whoop-de-doo and thanks for nothing. Please save the cost of glossy printing and the postage and put it toward the points owed to people in this thread.

    Re: Colorado Group Bonus Points Promo

    While we're on the topic of AMEX "Offers", has anyone received the AMEX/Telstra "offer" to set up all Telstra bills on a direct pay?

    I couldn't see any extra points benefit but only quickly scanned the card - did anyone notice any bonus(es)?

    Yes. That's what this thread is about .

    I use Optus (and pay via Amex) so I suppose I can see why I got the card (I'm in one of the two target groups).

    I couldn't see any extra points benefit but only quickly scanned the card - did anyone notice any bonus(es)?
    As per the subject heading - 2,000 points

    Hi everyone,

    I received the card in the mail for this offer on Monday - but no bonus points??!!

    Seems strange that they are sending points with some, and no points with others???

    Oh well
