    Do you know how much in $ 5000 points equal to?

    • +1

      Velocity and Qantas points usually sell for around 1.2c/point. If you are getting some other points, I am not sure.

  • Only got it on my Velocity Escape account, which already has a supp card from the last time I took advantage of this promotion.

    Hoping they give it to Firstname Surname (aka me) with F Surname on the card … Don't have anyone to open another supp card for!

    • +5

      AFAIK there's no actual checks on the secondary cardholder.

      I opened one up in my dogs name.

      • +4

        Amex asked me to provide ID for my supp card application. I believe they conduct ID check randomly. your were lucky.

        • I has driver's licence :)

          • +1

            @kerfuffle: My first two cards are the first name and surname of my partner and I. The second two are our initial and surname hence you'll be fine kerfuffle.

              @carlenet: Fingers crossed! :)

            • +1

              @carlenet: Got approved! The second supplementary card showed up in my account when I checked this morning. Hopefully it arrives before my interstate trip this weekend :)

        • I got 3 for 2 different cards and they did not ask for id on any of the 6.

    • No problem at all. I've previously spoken to Amex and they are fine with a supp card in your own name. Not sure about hitting the bonus points in this situation. though

    • what is this hack i dont know till now?
      so if my name is John Burn i can open supp card with just filling the app with John and B as surname, and supply the same real driving licence address dob etc?

      • You can open the card under John Burn.

        • whut? i mean i have already primary card under John Burn. supp card can be the same name address and id?

          • @CyberMurning: I think madreece meant that you can open one under J Burn

          • @CyberMurning: Yep.
            I tried to get a sup in my business name. Spoke to Amex and they said I couldn't, but I could get a supp card also in my name, which I did and just wrote business on it.

  • How do you know if the bonus points applies to your card?

    • Check your account 10-12 weeks after the promotion ends

      • ah ok - thanks. so just safe to assume that if you add a supplementary card and it hits the spend then the points are applied. I thought there might have been a promotion on screen when logged in.

        • You normally get a promo screen. I got e-mailed about it but didn't get the promo screen (probably because the account I use has two Amex accounts on it)

    • I was told by chat you can only get the bonus once per card.

  • I'm still waiting for my points from way back in December…

    • i had to chase mine … it's not automatic somehow :(

      • Ditto

        • Thanks guys - I'll call them and bug them again

          • +1

            @bpop99: Try live chat them; at least you can get it in writing

            • +2

              @kerfuffle: I called them earlier - they said they will credit it on the 9th. I'll wait and see if that happens and them bug them again if it doesn't

  • No where it mentioned about the extra points.

    • that what I'm wondering, where the 5,000 is mentioned on the site

    • +1

      Mine showed up in the Offers section; try look there

  • did live chat they said there was the offer on one of my accounts but not the another. they said i had to call to take up the offer otherwise i might not get the promo applied to my account and not get the bonus points if i applied online. can anyone confirm if they will or got the points by applying online after been told that the offer was available on the account?
