Been doing it for 3 months with pre paid and now debit card and no issues.

Fantastic. I just know Amex gets suspicious of anything.

23

I would it be suspicious? Heā€™s using the amex regularly and paying it off as heā€™s 100% entitled toā€¦ not sure how Amex could fault it?
The only thing that sucks is he wouldnā€™t have the vendorā€™s merchant name, etc on Monzo, but just a ton of Amex transactions :slight_smile:

24

I have no idea but Amex is weird. Iā€™ve heard of people being shut down for making two payments in a monthā€¦ Much less dozens.

Granted those reports are in the US, I think. And nothing makes sense about banking there to begin with.

More of a Virgin man myself. All about the physical bar on the planeā€¦

Delta and Virgin are pretty much merging their operations from London, so itā€™s irrelevant which you book you could end up on either plane.

27

You can tell when you book who will operate the flight. Do Delta have bars?

28

True, but you have to look LOL. And no, but they have free alcohol and cheap WiFi!

29

Everyone has free alcohol, but I hate being in my seat all the way. Sadly Virgin have actually made the bar less comfortableā€¦probably to get rid of me!

I initially missed the ā€œmanā€ bit when I read this :laughing:

I read on CreditCards.Com that Amex allow more than one payment:

American Express - Allows multiple monthly online payments? Yes
Online payments can be made once every 24 hours.

I have made at least 2 payments this month as I got a CostCo Amex card to get the 1% back and then pay it off weekly if Iā€™ve made any purchasesā€¦ no issues so far and Iā€™ve been doing this for about 5 months now :+1:

32

Iā€™ve made 10 payments in 30 minutes before!

33

The site definitely allows it, but Iā€™ve heard of it throwing people into the dreaded ā€˜Financial Reviewā€™ state - just Google ā€˜American Express Financial Reviewā€™.

34

Just had a quick Google as you said and Iā€™m only putting CostCo purchases and Fuel from CostCo on my CostCo Amex, so pretty much under Ā£500 total every month, so hopefully not a problem :thinking:

Thanks

I wouldnā€™t worry so much then, I think the bigger concern is people spending many multiples of their credit limit every month.

I would do if I could maintain my Avios and get them with Mondo
