I did an AP for $750, then chickened out and did $1k at CVS for Vanilla Reloads. However, when I looked on my statement, it shows the $750 as a legit purchase and also gave me the US miles, so I think it will work, but am not 100%.

Are you brave enough to test it?

I'm thinking I will for at least one of the three months. I plan on buying a ~$400 flight in the next few days so I think I may do non-AP spending for the first month, but the next two months I may do AP so I don't have to keep track of how much I've spent on it.

The $750 I do on AP is semi-legit for me since it is for rent. The only thing is it goes to my roommate and then he makes one payment for the total rent amount to the landlord.

I wish I would get that offer. The one I got yesterday was for 5 bonus miles per dollar on restaurants, gas stations, and home improvement stores, up to 2,500 miles, through June 30. I could easily meet the $750 spend requirement and I could totally use the 15,000 extra miles!

Both. Email was sent 2-3 days prior to a card in the mail.

Perhaps time to sock drawer the card and see if that will wake 'em up ...
Mine has been in the sock drawer since I got it in Nov 2011 and brought out for small purchases every 6 months.............no offers for me. They keep sending me balance transfer (low rate) offers which I have no use for by email. How do I trigger one of these offers?

As I reported previously, I did three AP's and got the 15,000 credit in Autumn 2012.

Does anyone know how long it takes for the bonus to post after you spend your $750 in the third month? I had January, February, March offer. I completed it on March 3rd, so it has been close to 8 weeks. Does it post consistently after 6-8 weeks? Do I need to call Barclays to investigate further? I appreciate any feedback.

AP = Amazon Payments, you can read up more about it in the Manufactured Spend forum.

Cheers,

PedroNY

In my experience it was credited not when the statement where the spending was completed posted, but at the close of the following one.

Received the 15k bonus offer on card I opened in January

Opened my US Airways Dividend Miles MC in January and received 40k bonus points. Now I received offer for 15k bonus points if I spend $750 each month in May, June and July. Since I just completed my required spend for new Sapphire card, this offer comes at the right time!
