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 ExpressĀ® 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.

One time credit card payment, increase the amount to whatever you want (max 2000). Pay the $3.95 fee. Been doing this with my 2% double cash for years. You must have a balance.
Thank you!
Why didn't I think of this before? Argh!
Have you tried paying with $500 VISA gift cards?

When did you get this offer ?
Back in December, didn't think it was going to stay and finally checked back to find this! 3X $6500 is an awesome surprise.

Card is Amex Blue Cash (legacy). No annual fee, I don't think they take apps for it now. Cash Rewards are: Annual US spending at Everyday Purchases at U.S. Supermarkets, Select U.S. Drugstores, U.S. Gas Stations from $0.01 - $6,500 then you earn 1.00% and for the Other Eligible Purchases you earn rewards 0.50%.

Rewards bonus up after $6500-50K spend to 5.00% and for the Other Eligible Purchases you earn rewards 1.00%.

Sure helps paying two out of state college tuitions....

It is $3.95 per transaction, in theory you can use Visa gift cards but the higher the amount you charge, the lower % the fee is of course.

To the people getting these offers, what is your annual spend on the cards? I still can't believe they are handing out free $$$ for nothing. Boggles my mind.

These offers were mistakenly given out on Dec 13 2021, if you received and loaded it on your card, before it was pulled you lucked out. Amex did not repeat the mistake since. THAT would boggle my mind!

the amex offer is a process which consists of amex first randomly sending an offer to the customer by making it available to your account. the customers accepts the offer by adding it to their account; click on the button. the customer agrees to comply with the offer in order to get paid. luckily the amex offer program has some integrity. it would be unwise for amex to make you an offer which you accept and they turn around and revoke the offer after you've planned to adhere to the terms. not that they couldn't do it legally (especially if there was a mistake) but imagine if you added the offer, make the transactions or made arrangement to start the service, and then amex said "never mind." amex did not pull back this particular offer if you accepted it (added it your account); you got lucky. however if you let it sit there and you hesitate to add it because you didn't know if it were real or not then it for sure disappears on you as in, you snooze, you lose; 100%. amex reissued the corrected offer which turned out to be pretty pathetic actually.

I just realized I have a $500 off $500 offer, which expires 3/13/2022. I just made a purchase, but I didn't get congratulation email. Can anyone got credit from this offer share if you got congratulations email ? Since the offer is for 3 time use, I am not sure if I should go ahead make the purchase for the rest of the two. Or am I too late?

Thanks in advance.

Check your spam folder for the email. If you have the offer still in your AMEX offers, I would trust to go ahead and do the other two. That or buy something you can return in case. I got the email when the charge went through but not on the 2nd and 3rd. You are cutting it close so don't do it the day it is going to expire for places that don't process quick (aka Costco)

Thank you. I made 3 online purchases on 3/11, and one was posted on 3/12 and the other two on 3/13 which is the last day of the offer. I did get 3 Congratulations emails on 3/12. Can I know when I should expect to see the credit ?
