Has anyone ever tried buying points instead of a gift card and had the credit reimbursed?

Not sure but it says the points are bought through Points.com which I think would disqualify it with the Amex offer.

Ordered a $200 one with my platinum tonight around 6pm and I never got a confirmation of the order email or the gift card sent to me. It is showing as pending on amex though. Anyone had issues with their orders in the last day or two? They usually come pretty quickly.

I also did not receive two gift cards (2x$100) I purchased for myself last night. However I did receive two that someone else sent to me.

I contacted their twitter dept and they said they have been closed since the 29th and are behind and they should come out tonight sometime - I guess we will see.

Southwest $100 gift cards - dead
Update – bought two gift cards on Southwest for $100 each. None qualified for credit. The cat is out of the bag. Called up Amex – they said Southwest gift card purchases do not qualify for travel credit.
2017 has been enlightening in that be careful buying into what the travel bloggers flog to death.

Purchased on 1st January. Charges posted to my account this morning. No reimbursement triggered - unlike what happened with United MPX in the past (charge posts and reimbursement occurs at same time).
Called because I did not get reimbursed for it and wanted to see if calling may fix an error.
The real folks giving it away are those posting it in public on their blogs.

My credit shows posted two days after the charge, but, I could not see it until the third day, so get back with us tomorrow.
