I have a 20K bonus points for 20K spend on an amex card(not a retention or initial bonus). Can someone please confirm if Simon vgc spend counts towards bonus like this one?

Was at a Simon this morning and I asked about the promo and they confirmed it. Rep will ring up the cards as usual (with $3.95/card fee) then use a promo code for $1 off each card at the end of the transaction before payment.

Personal experience on similar previous promo. Purchase at the Mall did not earn extra. But ordered online earned extra until it also stopped.

The fine print said it is only available at Simon Guest Service or at the Mall. The discount comes with a code and it is entered at the end of the transaction before you pay, if this works the same as in the past. Looks like it is the same mechanism per DPs.

Anything is possible but from slack app discussions I've read those who have recently tried have been shutdown a month or so after getting approved for a corporate account. These were MSers who drained the $1K GCs in one swipe and obviously Sim0n didn't like it. I'm just wondering how come they are well aware of "gamer's activities" and how those $500s are drained and have tolerated this, but when it comes to corporate VGCs, they are non tolerant of "abuse"?

I saw someone run 1K visa cards twice now. The CSR confirmed it as well. I think the heavy hitters just try to keep it quiet and say they get shut down so we all don't try for accounts. With more and more WMs going to one swipe, it would be great if they sold consumers the 1K cards.

Yes, I guess I wish they had similar pricing for consumers and would sell us the 1K cards. Here is the pricing for corporate accounts.

1 - 24 $3.95
25 - 99 $3.50
100 - 249 $3.00

1000 - 999999999 $1.99

Simon will NOT sell the consumer the high value card because the compliance requirement is very different between "personal use" and "business use" by the AML laws, that the merchants who sell cash equivalent instruments must adhere to.

Spending $100,300 in a morning can be such a hassle.
