  • I got the "Spend $50, get back $5 (up to 3 times)" on my Amex gold, and spent more than $200 in various restaurants listed as small business but never get my credits

  •  Went to a restaurant listed under the “Dining” Category filter on the Shop Small Map, but they don't take amex :(

  • I got the spa offer, lots of hair care options available. Too bad that I am a 65-year-old bald guy who’s never been to a spa…

  • Does anyone know if 3rd party Amex offers take longer to give the statement credit than Amex-issued cards? I added the offer to my Bread Cashback Amex and used it on 11/1 and the transaction posted on 11/4 but no confirmation email that an offer was used or statement credit. The restaurant is on Amex’s Shop Small map. Amex Offers on my BCE are applied the same day the transaction posts and I usually (not always) get a confirmation e-mail that I successfully used the offer.

    • @guest_1945558 Same time frame as the usual. I just did my first offer on my Avianca Cardless Elite card with the 10% dining offer. 10% worth of credit showed up 2 days after the purchase settled.

  • I miss the old days when we could get $20 (or was it $40?) of free money on each of our Amex cards at any Shop Small merchant. ☹

    • I think it was $30 (3x$10). I used to make the rounds to different restaurants, buying gift cards. Those were the days!
