  • Expires on 11/21/2019

Our Verdict

This looks to be a variation of this linked offer. I suspect the deal is supposed to be spend $3,000 or more and earn $30 cash back. Can’t see American Express honoring this deal as is but I’ll let the legal experts determine their liability here.

Perhaps the person who valued points at $1 each on our 1099s is now in the promotional offers department?

The email was an HTML that pulled data form Amex web site. it changed completely later this morning. I originally had something crazy like spend $6500, get $12500

I’ll sue the F out of Amex if they don’t honor it. If they say it, they mean it. Period.

I added a version for 1500MRs for $1500 yesterday. As of this morning, the offer disappeared from my “added” tab.

Same here. How interesting: Amex can take away an offer it wishes they hadn’t given you.

This is ridiculuos. I called why I don’t see that offer anymore, and they put me on hold forever and transferred to four different agents kept asking me the same questions. The last agent told me that they will put this issue to some kind of team to resolve. I just hung up. I should have screenshotted the offer.

It’s a typo. Before I receive that email, I’ve already saved the offer with bonus MR points on AmEx website. The wording on the website was correct but the email that followed was clearly in error (the words were correct but the embedded graphics weren’t). I don’t expect AmEx to honor it.

I received the email last night was pretty sure it said this has already been added to your card. It was the 3000 for 3000 however after seeing your post I went back to email and guess what the email completely changed…it now says discover your latest offers. I logged onto my account and it shows nothing was added to my card and I don’t see it in the available offers, guess I should have clicked on it last night but how in the world did the email itself change.

I wonder if the RAT team will claw back the employee agreement for whoever was responsible for this?
