  • I have it, but mine is spend $900 or more, receive 1500 MR points.

    • Damn, that's unfair. :(

      • Hahaha. I saw it when I was looking at the Trenery offer someone posted a few hours ago. I didn’t have that but I had this. At least you don’t have $10,400 !!

        • Lol, i'm guessing the offer varies as per monthly spend power. I've been spending approx. $1.5k-2k per month with Amex, so hence my offer is as $1500?

        • @thewrongbeckie: or maybe depending on your Amex card and it’s earn rate of MR generally.
          I have an essentials. With a monthly bill under $1500 most of the time. Usually like $6-700.

        • I got spend $11000 for 3000 points

        • @thewrongbeckie:

          I dont think so. My spending is about the same as yours, on my Explorer card, but I got $5,000 for 1,500 points.

        • I got $9500 for 4500 points!

    • Mine is $1,900. :-(

  • What's the real $ value of said points please?

    • $100 for every 10k points.

    • +1

      Depends on use. 1 MR points = 1 Velocity/KrisFlyer/Asia Mile etc.
      $ value for GCs suck.
      Also good for Starwood Preferred Guest points. Points value is even better when velocity has transfer bonuses.

  • +6

    $13000 or more, receive 1500 MR points

      Plat Edge, I only ever use the card for coles/woolworths spend where it's 3ppd so my monthly spend is low as I'm away for work half the time with zero spend.

      • +1

        Yep, that’s exactly the same card and usage for me, except I also put petrol on the card as it’s 2 points/$

  • Is this in the phone app under offers? Nothing for me unfortunately.

    • Nothing on mine either.

    • yeah, that's where I saw it

  • +2

    I have to spend ~2x my average monthly bill to get 1,500 points.
    Not likely since I already use Amex everywhere it's accepted. Saved it just in case I get an insurance bill or something big I can pay through PayPal.

    • Ditto… It's something I'm going to go out of my way to do, but if it happens it happens. A set and forget possible bonus

  • +1

    Got nothing on my DJs Amex

    • Did you check your Amex Velocity?

      • Yeah; nothing there either

  • Actually laughed out loud. Spend $1500 to get $11 worth of points?

    Good thing i'm cancelling my amex next month as soon as the velocity transfer bonus starts.

    • That's about the conversion rate to be expected from rewards cards.

    • +1

      Ideally, it's spend you can't avoid anyway - eg rates, bills. Might as well get something back for paying to be an adult/grown up.

      • Your spending must be really high like me then :p

        • Haha, I wish :P It's probably a 1/2 or 1/3 of yours, I don't have business expenses to shovel through the cards ;)
          Must be all the other things we do for the points - linking, local champion, etc etc

        • @MathNerd: lol touché ;) yeah I think it's the linking. Didn't get anything on my platinum edge either which I'd be lucky to do 1k every month. Just for buying e-gift cards.

          Will experience SQ first/suites this June for the first time, from FRA to SYD. Quite excited

        • @daft009:
          Wow nice! Well done.
          Likewise, my plat edge rarely gets a workout, the explorer cops an absolute thrashing though!
          Enjoy SQ suites, that's my dream too! Looking forward to the review/flight report :)

        • @MathNerd: thanks, actually excited about this 6 day work trip to FRA. Only doing the return leg in suites, going there in J. Managed to nab the brand new a380 suites on sq221 so was hard to say no.

          I enjoy reading TRs but I'm not one to write, I'm there to enjoy and experience it :p

  • 10100 or more for 1500mr

  • $2100 for 1500MR :(

  • $4,800 for 1,500 points… nah.

    I wonder if it is based on your past spending habits somehow?

    • Yes, definitely based off past spending habits, going off the responses in this thread.

    • This is a financial institution we're talking about - everything they do is based on numbers.

  • mine is spend $600 for 1500 points

  • I spend heaps on amex so wouldn't have minded even if they gave me one with a big spend. I have three cards and none of them got the offer so I am very disappointed. Off to Woolworths to buy some eftpos gift cards with my platinum edge.

  • Spend $5300 to get 1500 MR points on Platinum Edge card. No offer for Qantas Discovery card. Just ignored it.

  • $2300 for 1500 points for me

    of course have been spending up due to travelling :(

    normally average monthly spend is only 1100

    Edit: just popped up tonight and have been watching for this offer daily.
