Got a BCE March 10, saw that I have $100 available reward dollar balance yesterday. I've made over $1,000 in purchases so I'm guessing this is the welcome offer, but I didn't realize it would be available this quickly. The first statement hasn't even cut yet. Also wondering why it's $100 and not $50 since I have a BCE and not a BCP. Double checked my card member agreement, no annual fee.
Anyone else experience this or am I missing something?

Haven't spent $1,500. When I checked my rewards page, it said $0 reward for daily purchases so pretty positive it's the welcome offer. Just not sure why it's $100 and not $50. Also haven't signed up for Prime. I'd like to know if other's welcome offer reward dollars were available days after they hit the spending requirement.

I have a BCE and did a phone app on Feb 1st this year and the lady said she would do a $100.00 cash reward for spending $1k in the first 3 months if I was approved and I was!

Maybe that's it. I did do a phone app but don't recall him mentioning $100 vs. $50. Then again, I was really nervous about getting approved so I could've missed it.

I was nervous too! I think that's what they do to make you go for it, is to entice you with a better reward than you can usually get by doing it online!
