Amex PRG

Bought $50 gift certificate on 1/5. Reimbursed on 1/7.
Bought $50 gift certificate on 1/8. Reimbursed on 1/11.

loks like most aredoing only 50% so $100 for plat.. would the full 200 not go through?

does this still work?

I did 2 x $100 in the same day (separate transactions). Purchased on 1/7 and reimbursed on 1/10.

Just to add a data point for others: Used my PRG to purchase two $50 gift certs on Jan 1 and Jan 4. Both were reimbursed within a week of purchases.

I've been using Delta, easy process, buy 4 x $50 all at once, reimbursed right away, certificates emailed right away.

Switched to Alaska this year.

My experience:

Don't try to buy these while you are logged into your Alaska account, it errors out every time.

The first one I bought at $50 I selected the email option. Never received the email with the PIN code. Called customer care and they were to email me a copy. Never received it. Called again and did get the PIN emailed. Customer care agents have been very good to deal with.

Second and third $50 was purchased using the print feature. Was able to print with a PIN code on the certificate right away. This option worked the best for me.

Credit has been hitting my account 3 days after purchase.

I also don't recommend logging in. I got an error too.

But, my first cert I purchased on 13JAN and got credit on 17JAN.

Did the same on same dates with same results.

Bought my second $50 on 20JAN and reimbursed on 27JAN. Maybe holiday weekend was why it took so long..either way, SUCCESS!

Purchased 1 x $100 23 Jan. Reimbursement finally posted 30 Jan.

Purchased 2 x $100 on Jan 24 and 25.
One was reimbursed on Feb 3. Nothing yet for the second one.

Anyone else experienced slow reimbursements recently for AS?
Last year they were credited within 1-2 days.

I've got 2 that I'm waiting on.

Purchased $100 on 2/3, still waiting to be reimbursed.

Edit update: just saw this morning it was posted on 2/9.

Still waiting on 1x$100 from Feb 1.

Strange, still nothing for my Jan 25th transaction.

When's a good time to call?

Mine must have just posted, dated yesterday, Feb 9. It wasn't there late last night.

Give it a little more time.
