Remember that when the summer offers finished it was a couple of months before new ones started.

Indeed - they need to give us some time to spend the gift vouchers spent from the previous offers, no?

Well, we have 12 amex cards at the moment, potentially 15 if we request some more supp cards. Harrods would probably call the police i reckon if we turned up with all those

Does anyone know if the lloyds avios supp cards have different numbers to the main cards please?

I think the police might most certainly have to get involved. Does anyone know if Banana Republic does gift cards? (Just trying to capitalise on the effective 50% off).

Exactly what I had in mind! They do gift cards in the US so I assume they have them in the UK too, I don't see why they wouldn't. I was planning to cancel my lloyds amex but perhaps I'll keep it for a couple more months .

I'm pretty sure i remember someone saying they dont give card fee refunds so if you get charged the £50 it might be worth keeping it for the rest of the year, or if you havent been charged then possibly downgrade to the free version before they charge you.

If the supp cards have a different card number enabling you to hit these sort of offers twice per account then the cards should wipe their own noses quite well.

My phone app is not showing as HOF in Nottingham, or Gap as having the checkin special. They were both included in the last bonus, and only one of the 5 Stabucks in Nottm is included. Oh and Foursquare not even showing one of the countless Shell filling stations in my area, what a load of ****

As above, Gap an HOF do not start until 1st of Feb so no surprise they aren't showing up I guess.

Last time around i was able to check into a gap which was coming up with the offer but got the credit anyway for shopping at a different gap which wasn't coming up.

I understand your frustration but persevere with it, it's worth it. I'm sure we've all had similar experiences with the app. It can be temperamental at times

Yes they do gift cards, they are the sister company to Gap and one of the assistants let me know it can be possible to use them across both brands. Worth a try!

Here we go again amex, fill your boots kids!
