American Express has majorly bungled the $250 business card promo.

According to what they told me, they originally had major problems with all applications coming in from the $250 promo, and they were never processed.

Lucky for us the $250 promo is still live!

So how do you know if your application was processed or not?

Use the Amex Status Checker Linky and check if you see the application.
If you applied for it when I originally posted the deal back on the 18th and it’s still not there then your application was never processed and you should apply again.

I can confirm that if you apply for a card now through the $250 link it will work (At least it did for me when a reapplied yesterday!)
It can take about 24-48 hours for the application to show up in the status checker.

Due to the Amex error I have reposted the original Amex articles that I posted back on the 18th.

Please post here about:
-Which cards you applied for.
-Did you get accepted on the spot or not.
-Did you fill in the Tax-Id field, or did you leave it blank.
-Anything other specifics about you application.

Please dont post here with questions!

Leave initials or something of the like to identify yourself so that in a week or 2 I’ll bump this post and we’ll know what’s the best method!

Questions will be added to this thread as i receive them…

$250 Amex Offer Linky

1. I see the first 2 cards in the promo are cards, and the last 2 are credit cards, what’s the difference between a charge card and a credit card?
A charge card must be paid in full each month, before the next statement is issued. A credit card does not.

2. Can I apply for more than 1 of the cards?
Yes, you can apply for all 4 in fact!

3. If I apply for the $300/year card, will Amex pro-rate the annual fee if I cancel it?
Yes, if you cancel it then the annual fee will be divided over the months you had it. If you apply for the business platinum $300/year card and cancel it after 6 months you will get back $150 for the annual fee, in addition to the $250 you already got.

4. If I already have the delta amex card, I understand that I wont receive the miles as you only get it once but will I receive the 250 dollars???
Yes you will, in fact you may just get lucky and receive the 15,000 miles again-please report back and let me know!!!

5. Why are you pushing this offer so hard, how much is Amex paying you already to promote this deal?
Nada, zilch, not a cent. I figured most people would appreciate the ability to pocket $1,000 but apparently you don’t…

6. Does AMEX combine cards?
You for sure can combine 2 consumer or 2 business cards, i’m not sure if you can combine 1 of each-if anyone has attempted this please post your results!
-Update: A commenter relates that he was successful in getting this done between a personal and business amex card!

Nice job guys!

I have spent a good amount of time today cleaning up the sidebar on the right and adding more features in it.
Here is what can be found under the ads-where I’m sure all of my loyal readers click on before going to those sites!

As a small contest in honor of reaching this latest milestone number I will be giving away free itunes!

Whoever emails me a screenshot or picture of hit number 400,000 will receive codes for 30 free itunes songs.

Complete your Matisyahu collection or resell them they’re yours to keep,
but they’ll expire in just one week!

-Limit 1 prize per person!

Good Luck!

I have blogged previously about futurephone.com which provided free international calling to over 60 countries.
While that service appears to be down more have popped up in the meantime.
Here are some more access numbers to call:
-712-858-1000
-712-429-8888
-712-338-8288
-641-297-8888

The area code for all of these is in Iowa.
As I said last time I still recommend blocking your number by dialing *67, which is free from all phones, before dialing any of the access numbers so that they have absolutely no way of billing you or having your number.
See my previous post for more info…

For the past few months Google has been throwing millions of dollars at us to subsidize all of our heart’s desires(OK, well most of them…)
