Amex Bill Pay from bank

dahx — Tue, 08 Apr 2025 01:10:05 GMT

I'm thinking of pushing payments via bill pay.

But I'd like to test the transaction first. What are the odds amex will take offense to me pushing a payment for one whole buck and me possibly getting AA?

Also, the address on my invoice, the address on amex's website for payments, and my banks prefilled address for amex, are all different. I suspect I should use the one stated on my invoice but I can always ask amex that.

Actually I'd prefer to use fidelity CMA but I read lots of complaints regarding their bill pay.

I bank with ncsecu.

Approximately zero. That's really just good practice for bill pay to make sure everything works right.

^^^^ This

I use the address on my invoice, when adding a new billpay account.

I send $10, but $1 should work.

Would not hurt to check with Amex, if you can get to some one who knows.

Do not have any current Amex card's however many years ago using billpay was not an issue with them.

Thanks.

Apparently amex supports ebill via fidelity CMA so I might just use that. Though, I'm not sure if that's a push or a pull from CMA ( I prefer push ).
