Just got a partner card for my OH (currently a £15 cashback offer when you apply). Quite surprised it has Member Since 25 on the front as I assumed it was basically just a duplicate of mine.
Yeah, my son is on my account and has member since 23 vs my since 04. Wonder if that carries over when he eventually gets his own card?
It will but not automatically. He’d have to call them and ask for it, but then they’ll easily match up the profiles and re-issue the card automatically.
It’s the same if you get a new type of card, sometimes they’ll start you fresh with the member since date but they’ll happily fix it.
Was surprised to see the amount of places in Aussie Land that don’t take AMEX.
Even some places in Central Sydney was a “NO!”.
Was expecting my AMEX to be my main card on this hoilday. But no Revoult Ultra taken the crown for that.
Only time I ever use Amex abroad is on work trips where I am going to be reimbursed for my expenses in full.
I will have to have words with my Aussie other half as she assured me that when we move there we will get away with using only the Amex which was going to be really handy as I know I can get an Aussie one through Amex global.
On a related note, she also said that her uncle only ever used Diners Club. Not totally sure that I believe that now
No. Only priority pass account…
They refunded fraud transaction but I received rewards points for this transaction. Is it safe to use them ? It’s 4k points
Anybody know if you have a credit card and the charge card, if you can ‘transfer’ both via global transfer to a new country? I know it’s not technically a transfer.
Back to having some good Marriott deals on both my Amex’s!
BA - Spend £500, £100 cashback (will save us £100 for Eurovision)
Marriott - Spend £200, £75 cashback (will save us £75 for upcoming trip to Plymouth)
About time, now eagerly waiting for Hilton and Radisson offers.
Does look like the Marriott spend has increased as it use to be spend £400 and get £100 back.
Also there’s been an update today on iOS and seems you can manage your credit limit and reallocate your combined limit between your cards in the app now:
Does anyone know if it’s possible to upgrade the blue rewards card to the gold card, and if you still get the free year?
It just threw me a message saying I had to call up, hence asking here.
I’ll ask for a representative first and then try asking.
Edit: Yeah they still need you to call apparently as it’s a change to your card member agreement but should be doable. Had the rewards card for donkeys, figured I might as well get the gold card benefits for free for a year and then downgrade again
Update is on my iOS but not on android yet
Says for me I can’t do anything to reallocate limits as there’s no compatible cards. I have one MR and one cashback, so guess you can’t even transfer limits between different reward programs either?
I transferred limit from my cashback card to my rewards card the other day, so it is possible, but I did it via chat.
I went from blue to gold and they moved over my credit limit so I now have £30k.
Had you downgraded to blue from gold previously? I wouldn’t mind a bump back up again for a free year
