American Express Sending Some Platinum Cardholders $100 Hugo Boss Giftcard

Every now and then American Express sends some Platinum cardholders a gift as part of the #amexappreciates program. There is no clear reason as to why some cardholders get targeted and others don’t (it’s not tied to spend on the card as some people with $100,000 in spend are targeted and some with close to no spend are also targeted). Today some readers have reported receiving a $100 Hugo Boss gift card.

  • I received the $175 gift to Veronica Beard and purchased a single v-neck tee for $88 and was surprised to find out shipping was also free with the Amex offer which canceled out their 'free shipping for orders of $100' policy.

  • I don’t know how to use the Veronica Beard gift card. Payment does not allow for an alphanumeric entry. How do I redeem this gift card?

  • @will I got a $175 gift card from AmEx today for Veronica Beard, which is a highish-end women's clothing and accessories brand. Not sure if it's at all tied to my birthday, which was yesterday. My gift was also a part of the #amexappreciates program.

    • I received one of those as well. There’s not much on Veronica Beard that $175 will cover, so I put a couple sale items in my cart...guess what...doesn’t work with sale items. Complete BS. Going in the trash.

    • I received the same gift card yesterday. No Bday for me, but Happy Bday. I have never heard of the store but my wife has.
