I just got off the phone with amsx in and they had no idea about this particular gift card, they looked in their system and said there were no wow offers going out this month that they could see.

Are you sure this is for a personal US card? And it was just Olivela.com?

Susan reported the offer in early November. Perhaps it is gone by mid-December?

Possible, but someone jusf posted that they called in about it, maybe it was a few weeks ago?

I think almost every wow gift I've received I've had to call in to get since I received the card in -1999. I think the last one I received unsolicited was the Wilks Bashford one around 6 or 8 years ago. That one was great as I already shopped there for suits. Nada since.

It came in a traditional black Centurion envelope in early November and was specifically described as a $500 gift card from Olivela.com for Centurion members. My only Cent card is a US personal card. I was able to redeem it on the Olivela.com website.

It's the first gift card I've received in many years. Other members report gifts all the time that I don't get, so I'm sure there are a limited number and not every Cent member gets every offer. I don't think it is considered a "WOW" offer, but a gift.

Definitely a banner year and loads of great offerings by Amex. Let's hope 2019 is better!

Is there a Wiki for this? We churned ~$500k through our AMEX Platinum Business card, but haven't seen a WOW gift. Would it come to the Primary Cardholder's mailing address or email address? That could be the issue

Centurion WOW gifts go to Centurion card holders, not Platinums. That's more likely the issue in your case than the mailing address.

USA Centurion David Yurman $1,000 gift card online or in store use. This broke up a long dry spell.
