Reminder: Use the Old Amex Interface to Check your Amex Offers

We’ve written about the problems that the new Amex credit card interface has. The biggest issue is that on the new interface an offer saved on multiple cards in the login disappears after being used on one card. This is not because it won’t work on the other cards. It’s just a function of the new interface.

Use the old Amex interface, especially when checking your Amex Offers. A lot of people might like other things about the old interface better as well. Actually, the new interface got a bit better since I last wrote on the topic, but the old one is still better overall, in my opinion. Another option is to use the mobile app.

Note, the new interface works fine to SAVE the offers. It’s only when referencing the offers after they were saved that you’ll want to be using the old interface specifically.

I’d thought most people were aware of this already, but time and again we’re bumping into comments, Tweets, and forum messages by people stumped with what’s going on with their Amex Offers, so it’s was worth a reminder.

  • Just tried this today and it doesn't seem to work anymore. It takes me to the login page (even if i'm already logged in another tab) and then to the regular new interface. Bummer.

  • Same here. I am redirected to new interface. AMEX is eliminating all of our favorite loopholes, and I will soon be cancelling two of my four cards

  • I'm not seeing my AmEx offers on more than one card even on the old website now. Anyone else have this problem? Any thoughts on how to find them? (I'm looking for the cable and cell phone offers that expire in 2 weeks - I only see them on one card even though I saved them to other cards; if only I remembered which ones).

  • I've had no problems registering. In fact doing so on multiple cards with browser tabbing is less clicks now I find. So the problem is the offers don't appear registered to allthe cards after you have enrolled?

    • The main (only?) problem is that after using one card, it sometimes (always?) disappears from the other cards, even though it's still fully registered on those card.
