Stop doing the 2x50 since 1x100 works now.

On what date did you purchase the $100 GC and how long did it take for the reimbursement to show?

What purchase type did the GC post as?

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?

I am in the same boat. Purchased $50 on both Aspire & Business Plat and see both posted today as "Passenger Ticket". Will wait before attempting the next purchase.

Amex platinum, purchased 6/1, posted 6/12 1x $100 eGift

Up and Down Jun 27, 2019 12:00 pm

Card: Personal Platinum
DL Selected
Purchased 4 x $50 e-giftcards via desktop
Posted 6/22
Shows as passenger ticket
No reimbursement as of this time

P2's Gold airline credit worked like a charm last month. I've compared the two charges on each of our accounts and it looks like they coded identically so I'm still hopeful. I also haven't been credited for my Saks online purchase that posted on 6/24...maybe they will all just post at the same time..

Yeah....Still nothing for me. Worried something has changed.

Bear in mind that June is the end of a fiscal quarter. American Express could be using the IT resources for other work, or even deferring some expenses into Q3.

i'm on the same boat, 5x50 DL gc purchased on June 21 with Aspire card, no reimbursement yet, meter hasn't moved neither.

bradpitch92 Jun 28, 2019 6:16 am

I bought $50 gc using amex platinum on 6/24, and still no post and meter hasn't moved. I did already get my Saks gc reimbursed however and purchased that gc on the same day

Sometime today I plan on purchasing one (1) $100 egift card and see what happens. If I don't get reimbursed I plan to use it on an upcoming flight. Then I'll try the X$50. I'm hoping the $100 works as one poster reported so I can do another identical transaction after the first one is credited. Good luck to you and me :)

Edit above: I just placed two (2) $100 electronic gift card orders (two separate transactions) on Delta (non-mobile) site. I'm impatient, so I'll see if they both post for a credit. If not, I will use it soon for an upcoming trip and try again purchasing 4 x $50 e-gift cards with separate transactions. Just trying to see if the $100 e-gift card works like the other poster indicated several posts back.

I'll report back when or if I'm credited.

May I suggest that folks post their completed data points. I don't see much value in creating separate posts promising a DP in the future, but nothing useful at the time of posting.

Was trying to use up my $250 aspire credit.

Purchased 1x$50 on 6/17. Posted 6/19. Reimbursed on 6/21.

Purchased 2x$50 (separate transactions) on 6/22. Posted 6/23. No reimbursement to date. Meter hasn't moved.

You have a good point there. I'm very guilty of blabbing a little too much without a confirmed data point. Never fear, I'll be back to post my confirmation soon;)

Caveat emptor!

I had a 6/13 posted $100 eGift card that was credited successfully a day later. I thought the coast was clear and went ahead and ordered up three more $100 eCards across three different cards -- and none of them made the airlines incidentals credit cut.
