zteamtwo Posted March 5, 2016 #76 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Nauti--First of all you have to select the offer on your AMEX opening page (some AMEX cards do not have the offer) --look under "AMEX offers & benefits" on lower part of page. THEN, you must select the offer and "add it to your card" THEN you must make a $500 payment to NCL toward your cruise (if you use a TA--they can do it). I do not think that any payments you made prior to "selecting the offer" will count. Think of it as making a $500 payment toward your cruise for only $400.

He said that I can make a payment of $100 to equal $500 to get the offer. :D I hope he is right. :rolleyes:;) So that's what I just did. I also used another computer to open up AE account under my DH's card. I applied the offer and made a $500 payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medtech2 Posted March 5, 2016 #78 Share Posted March 5, 2016 So glad I saw this post! (and my DH wonders why I am on CC every day!) I had just applied for and gotten a True Blue card to replace the outgoing Costco Amex. It had an offer of "spend $1000 in 1st 3 months, get $200 credit" I was wondering how I would do that when I saw this, made another log in for DH's companion card, clicked on both offers, made the 2 $500 payments on my November cruise that I had just booked and Voila! Basically lowered my cruise cost by $400!! Now granted, I had not planned on making such a large payment on a November cruise so soon but gee, who can pass up free money?

JustAllie Posted March 6, 2016 #80 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I'm not sure I would apply for a new American Express card because of this offer -- these "AmEx Offer" deals are targeted to specific cardholders, so there is no guarantee than any particular cardholder will get that offer.

dasmonkey Posted March 9, 2016 #82 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Important--if you are going to use this Amex offer on more than one card, YOU MUST READ POST #14 AND CLICK ON THE LINK IN THE POSTING. I got this on my AmEx "Blue" card and have already added. Am I understanding correctly that if I try to add my brother for example as a second card holder on my account that this offer would not show as an option since I have already added? He has the Delta AmEx card and doesn't have the offer available. Ironically this popped up while I was on a NCL cruise but as luck would have it I am booking and sailing again before the end of April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CTCruiser001 Posted March 9, 2016 #83 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Sweet! I checked my offers on my AMEX Platinum card and it was there! Made the wife who is an authorized user on my account check her offers and she had it too! Free money is always appreciated! $200 off our Alaskan cruise is awesome and will go towards shore excursions! Between this offer and the usual CPP promo we get from AMEX & Norwegian, I love using this card!

He has the Delta AmEx card and doesn't have the offer available. Ironically this popped up while I was on a NCL cruise but as luck would have it I am booking and sailing again before the end of April. I am an authorized user on my husband's Amex Blue Cash Everyday card and both of us got the offer. I claimed both (using separate logins) and used my husband's for our $500 OBC. My $100 credit is still available. Whether they would put it on for a newly added authorized user, I don't know, but you could try.

vinotinto Posted March 9, 2016 #87 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Showed up on my blue card, but did not show on either of our Skymiles accounts. Easiest $100 I've made. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loonbeam Posted March 11, 2016 #91 Share Posted March 11, 2016 If you see the offer in your amex account you can book it. I don't think the branded cards get it. I purchased my cruise a few days ago to sail in 11 days (I suprised myself) Anyway, I booked through Costco travel and used my amex Costco credit card. The travel agent made no mention of this. How do I go about getting this credit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warm-Water Diver Posted March 11, 2016 #92 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Yep. I have a Costco AMEX as well. Just logged on and it is NOT in the list of offers. I called AMEX customer service to inquire if they could add the offer to our account/card. I was politely told they couldn't as those offers are automatically loaded and selected by their marketing department so if you don't see the offer, you can't get it. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems the offer was not added to co-branded cards. The Costco Amex is going to be defunct soon anyway, but I am using it on my trip for hotel and any remaining on board expenses to squeeze the last life out of the 2% cash back for travel.

oregonian123 Posted March 12, 2016 #94 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Hi, I don't see it offered on my Hilton AMEX Platinum. Is anyone else showing on theirs? Is Hilton excluded from the offer? I couldn't see that is was specifically ruled out. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thescot123 Posted March 14, 2016 #98 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Thanks for posting the info about this deal. We booked a cruise, last night, via NCL and didn't know about this extra free money. Went to my Amex card and saw the offers which I have applied to my account. Got the email from Amex saying that I have enrolled in this offer. Good to get free money.

goeva Posted March 14, 2016 #100 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Thanks for posting this, OP. I checked both my and DH's account, didn't see the offer for Amex Costco but found it under Amex Blue Cash Everyday Card. Called my TA to put $500 on each card and got the confirmation emails from American Express immediately after the transaction took place. Yay! :D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
