It would not allow me to add it again, yet it's not showing up in my added offers neither. Although I had the email proof, I decided against Amex and used another card instead.
I got so paranoid now I check the offer in my account before I use it.... whenever possible. Some Amex offers are decent and worth the effort. Others are not.
I'm paranoid now too, I always check! While 1500 points isn't huge, I'm working towards two international flights and am trying to grab every single point I can. It's a lot of work though!
