js Posted March 23, 2017 #101 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I am not talking about replacing your card Where you go to add an authorized user - Like getting a card in your wife's name - Just do your own name - I have done this on both my card and my husbands card Login > to the right hand side near the middle/bottom of screen you can add someone to your account -- Just use your own information On my husbands account he has an additional card in his name and 2 cards in my name On my account I have 3 additional cards in my name and 2 additional card in his name You just have to create a separate login for it when you get the card - I can still use my original card So, if I did this, for each time I wanted to pay $500 and get $100 back, I would need another card, is this correct? So, I could theoretically get six cards and get $600 back on my cruise? Once I am done, I can cancel the cards? Thank you so much for your help.

5ten Posted March 24, 2017 #104 Share Posted March 24, 2017 You don't have to add your kids to get additional deals you can have additional cards sent to you in your own name - I found this out by accident I went ahead and added our oldest since she is turning 17 soon and leaving for college. We decided it would be good to help her build a credit score. :D She is uber responsible so if we send her with cc to go shopping with friends, she will only spend what she can pay us in cash that day, so we aren't worried.

luv2trvlnow Posted March 24, 2017 #107 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I want to thank the OP. We did not have the offer on our cards. So I used the link they provided and was able to apply it to both of our cards. We booked a cruise on March 20. The charges on each of our cards posted on March 22, and the $100 credit on each of our cards posted on March 23. We would not have been able to get this if we waited until our cruise on the Conquest next month since they are one of the test ships where you only get a $50 credit for booking onboard no matter the length of the cruise and it has to be Early Saver. This way we booked Past Guest and can cancel if we need to with no penalty. After all November 2018 it a long ways away and anything could happen between now and then. Plus if we go it is a $200 savings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured the same name deal out by accident as I logged into what I thought was my husbands account to order a card in my name and turned out I was logged into my account - I did not think they would actually send me the card but they did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ontheweb Posted April 11, 2017 #111 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Posting this in case you don't know about it. www.americanexpress.com/wlcl If you don't see the offer when you log in to your account, go to the link above. ----------- Get a $100 statement credit by using your enrolled eligible Card to spend $500+ while booking cruise line sailings with Carnival, Holland America, Princess, Seabourn or Cunard by 4/14/2017. See www.wlcl.com/amex . Terms and exclusions apply. Thank you for that link. I have had that offer on my card for a long time. Last week our TA called with a great price for a 2018 HAL cruise that I had asked him to keep on eye out for us. Yesterday, I set up the online account for my DW, but the offer was not there until I used your link. Today, I booked the cruise making 2 payments and have received 2 congratulations for using the offer e-mails. So a real big thank you coming your way.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bUU Posted April 11, 2017 #112 Share Posted April 11, 2017 So how do I get this Credit if I've already put the deposits in for the cruises? Can I just call both cruise lines and have each charge my amex $500 to pay down a bit of the balance due and will that still qualify, even though it is still refundable?

This message may have been entered using voice recognition. Please excuse any typos. You will need to add the offer to your card and call whomever you booked through if you wish to swap out the deposit. If you want to make a payment towards the balance, you can call or do it online.

This message may have been entered using voice recognition. Please excuse any typos. You can make a payment towards your booking. I've done it both ways, deposit and payment towards booking and it worked. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have two Amex cards on which the offer is available, then you can use it twice. We did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bUU Posted April 11, 2017 #117 Share Posted April 11, 2017 My spouse and I both have cards, with different numbers, but on the same account.

winchesterdog Posted April 12, 2017 #124 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Did anyone ever try to buy a gift card from the carnival site after adding the offer. I bet it would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I doubted it for a minute, but I actually got an email confirmation from Amex that both payments will be considered for the credit. $200. Sweet!
