I hope so, too, locative! It was great seeing that $250 credit in there this morning and knowing it can be put to good use on some nice post-holiday groceries! Free groceries are fun.Smiley Happy

I posted about this just this morning! Ha! My BCP bonus was applied almost immediately after meeting the spend. I also mentioned that my travel credit for 2015 posted within 7 days and my 2016 credit posted in 2 days! AMEX is on top of it!


Yay, Georgia! I'm glad it worked out well for you also. It's so nice to see that Amex is giving these out quickly to others as well. Smiley Happy

Congrats on getting your bonus quickly and your new card. I got the special $250 bonus within 3 days of having the BCE card. I decided to get the BCE with the special $250 bonus to off set the cost of new tires. I met the spend on the first day and then magically the credit appeared a couple days later. And the BCE is also my first Amex card. I think they are doing these kind of things to be more customer friendly. Then we end up promoting how cool Amex is Smiley Happy


Agree 100% joe, and thank you! Smiley Happy

Re: Amex is very fast with bonuses

I forgot to mention a data point, I did something else that might have triggered the bonus to appear. I made a 250 dollar payment that same day that it appeared. Maybe the combination of spending over $1,000 the first day. And then paying $250 the third day made it happen so fast.
