Received on my Amex Platinum Edge.

Likely to be targeted, but it is a really good cash back rate at 25%. Maybe it will stack with some sales.

I have a few more deals on my Amex, which may be of interest. Unsure if any dupes.

  • Myer - Spend $150, get $15 back (Expires 1 December)
  • Red Cross Online - Donate $70 or more, get $20 back (Expires 11 January 2025)
  • Kogan - Spend $50, get $10 back (Expires 29 November)
  • Laithwaites - Spend $150, get $50 back (Expires 15 December)
  • Expedia - Spend and get 10% credited to your statement up to $200 total credit (i.e. 10% off spend up to $2,000. Expires 31 December. On pre-paid hotels only).

      Oops. Fixed. Thanks!

  • WoodYouLikeSomeCash on 12/11/2024 - 08:51

    Can you use it for gift cards on MS online?

    • ts13 on 12/11/2024 - 11:16

      T&Cs usually exclude GCs but typically with Amex cashback, it will track. Maybe check some prior threads (there have been several MS Amex offers in the past) to see peoples’ experiences).

      • auskeek on 20/11/2024 - 08:54

        They blocked my purchase of gift cards and Microsoft support are pretty useless

        • emiii on 21/11/2024 - 14:00

          Amex blocked your purchase of gift cards? I keep getting an error on Microsoft website to complete the transaction.

          • auskeek on 21/11/2024 - 19:12

            @emiii: Microsoft did. Then their support was hopeless. Ended up getting a HP Lunar Lake laptop from HN

              @auskeek: Omg, I agree. Microsoft support is useless. I have to wait 24 to 72 hours to see if they can fix it so I can purchase gift cards. It shouldn't be this difficult to purchase gift cards online.

              • sewingstuff on 27/11/2024 - 14:01

                @emiii: They say that and then you won't hear back and then you chat to someone else after and they tell you it didn't get escalated and then the process repeats

                • SydOzber on 29/11/2024 - 12:55

                  @sewingstuff: I was just advised to buy $100 gift card one by one till the issue is resolved

          • SydOzber on 29/11/2024 - 14:17

            @emiii: Hi mate, unable to pm you.. did you end up buying gift cards from MS ?

            • emiii on 05/12/2024 - 20:58

              @SydOzber: I was able to purchase 5x$100 gift cards one day. Then no luck after that. I followed up with support for over a week and they couldn't resolve the gift card issue.

    • Danstar on 24/11/2024 - 17:45

      I just used this offer; spent $192 with ms account balance and $808 on amex. I'm assuming it will go through as amex don't know I spent using my MS account balance

    • sewingstuff on 27/11/2024 - 14:04

      currently you cannot add $800 worth of gift cards to the cart even though chat tells you that you should be able to. It also won't let you pay and comes up with an error

    • SydOzber on 29/11/2024 - 02:07

      https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/p/microsoft-gift-card-digita…

      The only way to purchase $800 worth of gift cards is to add 8X $100 gift cards

      Is that correct?

  • lostinsydney on 12/11/2024 - 14:54

    I have 2 x Kogan $10 on same CC. I activated a bit more week ago.

    Does anyone know if you can use two amex cards on the Microsoft online store?

    • bargainhereicome on 15/11/2024 - 13:21

      hi there, did you manage to use 2 amex cards on the online store? THank you

      • dammit on 21/11/2024 - 03:48

        Also wondering. It says you can get the $200 for $800 spend twice. And $800 is in one or more transactions. I’m wondering if $1600+ spent will give 2x$200…

        • emiii on 21/11/2024 - 15:50

          If we can do it in one transaction (spend $1600+) and get $400 back, that would save a lot of hassle. I haven't been able to purchase the gift cards.

          The Microsoft store only allows the use of one credit card per transaction but you can use as up to $1,500 worth of gift cards as secondary payment.

          Have you tried?

          • blob2025 on 17/12/2024 - 10:06

            @emiii: When you say you can use up to $1,500 worth of gift cards as secondary payment, what about existing account balance?
            Let's say you've added $2000 worth of gift cards into your account balance. Can you use the full $2000 as secondary payment?
            Thanks.

          I've check with Amex chat. Need to make two separate transactions of $800 or more to get $400 cashback.

          • SydOzber on 29/11/2024 - 00:42

            @emiii: That’s not true. You should receive $400 credit as long as you spend $1600. Doesn’t matter if it’s in one transaction or multiple transactions.

            I’m saying this based on my experience with AMEX offers from the last 8+ years

              @SydOzber: This is my experience too, but I’m just wondering why there’s so much hesitation on here.

            • emiii on 05/12/2024 - 21:00

              @SydOzber: Yeah, the other Amex support staff confirmed this. Too bad Microsoft has issues with selling their gift cards. So frustrating.

  • gccmelb on 15/11/2024 - 12:32

    So a Cole Group Giftcard at Myer?

    • szha270 on 15/11/2024 - 20:30

      Can we actually redeem the credit by purchasing a Coles Group Giftcard at Myer?

      • gccmelb on 15/11/2024 - 21:51

        I have in the past.

  • dammit on 29/11/2024 - 09:46

    anyone been able to use this with microsoft somehow with gift cards etc to gain 2 x $200 for a $1600+ purchase?

    • emiii on 05/12/2024 - 21:06

      Yes, I managed to do it before their gift card system broke. $400 off Surface Pro X & Keyboard and pen with their Black Friday sale.

    Posting my experience for anyone interested.

    Talked to AMEX chat before purchasing and they said I could do the 1.6k purchase in a single transaction so I gave it a shot (kept a transcript just in case of issue).

    Few days later the full $400 was returned so looks like it can be done in a single transaction.

  • blob2025 on 17/12/2024 - 01:30

    “Are there any limits to the amount of gift card value that can be spent per day?
    Yes, you can redeem gift cards to your Microsoft account of up to a total of AUD $1520.00 on any given day.”

    Does this mean that the limit to redeem GCs into your account is $1520 per day, and if you have $1600 worth of gift cards you can just do it over 2 days? Can anyone confirm this?

    Also if you wanted to buy a $3000 laptop and use another CC for the remaining balance, does it work like Apple where you apply $1600 worth of account balance and pay $1400 with your CC of choice?

    Thank you!

  • jace88 on 18/12/2024 - 21:00

    Fingers crossed there's some half decent boxing day deals to use the MS offer on.
