I saw this crazy offer on my blue cash preferred card. Seems like the craziest credit card offer of all time.

Expires :
03/13/2022

Get a $1,000 statement credit back by using your enrolled Card to spend a minimum of $1,000 in one or more eligible purchases. Once you add the offer to your eligible Card, you will have 90 days to spend $1,000+ or more, up to 3 times during the offer period. See terms for exclusions.

Update: Happy to tell it worked for me

Thanks for using your American Express® Card ending in 00000 for the Amex Offer below:

Your Special Offer
Spend $1000+, get $1000 back. Up to 3 times

If your purchase meets all eligibility requirements of the offer terms, you'll see your rewards reflected directly on your statement. Credits may be reversed if qualifying purchase is returned/cancelled.

Does anyone have the link for this offer?
Sorry if it was mentioned earlier in thread, I didn't see it.
There is no link. Either it's added to your list of offers, or it isn't. Up to you to activate if it is.

folks who have this should use it. quite possible they may have a cutoff point and allow those who came before to keep it. so if you get 3 times and only use it once.....fine. i would go for it now and ask for forgiveness later. amex can afford it and i see no reason why they should ban you even though it is possible they could claw it back. which is exactly why it's important not to call and ask amex if the offer is really real. you don't want to be told it's a mistake because after that, there's no excuse for you. but there are a lot of trolls on here so im sure many people are going to tattle....with the excuse they are calling to understand how they can get the same offer or it's not fair that i didn't get the offer since i do big biz w/amex or the infamous i checked my list and it stops at 100 so i cant see the offer that is really there but you're hiding it b.s. laugh out loud

This guy gets it. Some people on here don't deserve slickdeals.

Someone in a credit card forum just posted a spend $3000 get $6000 offer lol, this stuff is wild.

That's crazy. Must in reality be spend $3000 get 6000 points.

I'd spend $3000 at costco on a high end item in a hurry and if it doesn't come through return the merchandise. If it does come through then return the merchandise for a costco gift card rather than credit back to the card so you can keep the $6000.

correct, it's not just a typo. it's a typo and a mistake on who some of these went out to.

as i mentioned in other threads in the past, the amex offer team is probably two people, a mid-level analysis to get the job done and an intern. don't expect any high level of professionalism. they're probably in meetings right now with upper mgmt trying to figure out how best to mitigate the damages. worse case they pull back all the offers and claw back all the pending payments. or, send out a correct for those that got errors. if you don't have a point system then it's pretty obvious you can't use this.

Aight. Lemme do the dirty work.

Edit:
Just got off the phone, rep told me it was a mistake and it will be canceled.

Not sure why I feel good about it.

seems like they already have...partially. as you can see, someone has said they called and amex told them they are aware of the mistake. the offer has likely been pulled (corrected) so it cannot be added since no one is reporting any new spectacular finds; everyone is reporting points (the corrected version). perhaps those few people who are still combing thru the list of junk offers taking up valuable space can tell us if they find anything new when they get closer to the "bottom."

i don't think they can pull the offer once you have added it to your account but they can address it (individually) if you use it. they are amateurs so we'll never know. they might send a letter, they might claw it back, they might let it slide. all they have to do is add up the total cost and make the [loss] determination. if i were in charge, i would apologize, my mistake, and allow you to use it once, not 3 times. and then i would investigate and follow up action with the amex offer team. and then i would push for funds to overhaul the amex offer program.

The amount of people still asking about this shows why this thread needs to be marked dead.

It was a mistake. If you got lucky enough like me to add the offer before they corrected it then awesome.
I'm nervous if they'll take it back or not but that's why I keep coming back here to see if anyone reports anything of the nature.

Amex are not even trying to fix the offer message.

I am working to spend 2nd $1000, as I already got my first $1000 credit posted to my account. Just spend on whatever you will spend anyway like cell/cable/insurance bills, you can prepay most of these as well. It's like all other amex offers, you can split your spending. So not much to lose, nothing to worry at all.
