Here's an idea: how about posting stuff related to buying MOs in the "Buying MOs at _____" threads?

I used Plastiq to prepay some utilities; even at 2.5%, I'm doing fine.

I bought vgc to meet my spending requirement for my business platinum card, now statement came out, no bonus points and no purchase points either. Does anyone know whether amex enforces the gift cards purchases in all of their cards?Thanks!

It has been my experience with Amex MR earning cards that the bonus points post 30-60 days after the statement date in which you met the bonus. I wouldn't call and bring attention to your account just yet. Amex Hilton, SPG, and Delta bonuses always seem post within a couple days for me, but MRs usually don't. My most recent Amex MR card opened was the BBP and I met the minimum spend six days after opening it, but neither the bonus MRs or the MRs earned on my purchases posted until 52 days later.

Where did you buy and would that make a difference?
Thanks.

I didn't say it was your experience, I said it has was MY experience. Obviously it's another YMMV situation. A lot of people over on r/churning are reporting delays with their MR bonus points posting lately, and just like your own claims others report getting them much faster.

it appears to be true - spend tracker towards MR promo a CSR quoted seems to exclude a few GC i had in the mix (it was smth like 4k regular spend and a couple k in gc... only 4k are showing up on tracker even though my regular pending points statement shows the full amount...)

Looks like Simon mall GC no longer work for minimum spend.
