Amex Platinum USA
Purchased 4-$50 Delta Gift Card online with desktop browser using Wiki link on 6/15, seperate transaction for each purchase Posted 6/17 Reimbursed 6/19 With this, my previous post above, and 2-$50 gift cards from Amex Gold (I just upgraded to Platinum last week), now sitting at $350 total in 7-Delta gift cards |
Just wanted to post, as I have been following this thread.
Ordered multiple $50 Delta e-gift cards (in separate transactions) from Delta.com (desktop) between May 17 through May 28. Each of them posted and was reimbursed within a few business days. Amex Platinum here. |
Recently bought a seat upgrade through the DL app, was surprised to not be reimbursed, which is okay I suppose. I’ll just do the spend in another way at some point. IN the past, App seat change fees were reimburseable through Amex. |

I was more posting so that FT members might be aware for their own travel circumstances. I suppose I could call Amex and ask them to apply the credit. The total was about $129 I believe. |

Why does a $7 drink purchase on a flight trigger a full $100 reimbursement but to buy a gift card, you have to buy $100 worth(or 2 x $50)>
Can you buy an award ticket, pay the $5-ish taxes on the card and then cancel the ticket after 24 hours? Does anything like that work. I know I can buy the gift cards but just wondering if there is a better way. I have no upcoming Delta flights. |

If you don't spend $ on DL, it may be worth looking into selecting a different airline for the airline fee credits. |

The $mall purchases are made with Delta co-branded cards which offer a credit for any Delta purchase. These reports do not really belong in this thread. The $50 giftcard purchases are made with American Express Gold or Platinum charge cards -or- with the Hilton Aspire cred card, |

A little concerned and trying to understand what (if anything) I did wrong:
Purchased 1 x $50 with my wife's AmEx Gold and everything worked like a charm. Credit registered 2 days after charge posted. Then...I purchased 1 x $50 with my Aspire. The pending charge officially posted on June 21, but still showing with the "Passenger Ticket" label. I purchased on the desktop site and followed all guidelines. Still no credit as of June 25...third business day. Looks like all recent data points show credit posting 2 business days later. I'm concerned I did something wrong that caused it to actually POST as "Passenger Ticket", but no idea where I screwed up. Thoughts? |
Bought 2 x $50 on 6/20, both charges posted on 6/22 first as a Delta Airlines Atlanta, and now details were added making it an LAX-LAX passenger ticket. Hopefully it posts today or tomorrow...

1 x $100 reimbursed.
Stop doing the 2x50 since 1x100 works now. |
