I logged into my AmEX and noticed that I can : "@Enroll your eligible Card by 4/14/15 & pay your cell phone bill of $75+ online @ these accepting major US Carriers (AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, US Cellular, or Verizon) by 7/15/15 & get $10 back. Limit 3 statement credits. Make it easy & sign up for auto pay!"

Okay $10 per month for three months of paying a bill I would pay anyway is nice.

Probably good but this is only going to 1% rewards.  WIth a high enough bill, a 5% card like Cash Plus is going to better

Um, arthmetic skills are key.

$10 off $75 is 13.33% cashback (plus whatever cashback you get on your AmEx normally).  You don't have to pay your whole bill, or you can pay more than your bill.  Make three $75 payments.  If you still have a balance, then pay the rest with your Cash Plus.  If you end up with a credit balance on your cell phone account, then let it get eaten away over time.

I got it on my CostCo Personal AmEx, but not my CostCo Business AmEx.  Didn't see it listed on AmEx Offers in Facebook, so I couldn't add it to my Fido AmEx.

I made a $75 payment on my Verizon bill Monday and already got the $10 credit.  I'll make two more for another $20.  Once I use up the $225 on my Verizon account, it goes back to autopaying from my Chase Ink for 5%.

True, I missed that of course it didn't need to be the whole bill.  But then, in sarky response, tiime value is also key.   If I split the payments I save $7.  Worth the effort?  Maybe, maybe not.

Always worth it for $7.

Yeah, I have the offer too. By sheer coincidnece, I switched my AT&T Wireless autopay over to my PRG, and the first payment hit today. Already have the $10 credit.

I have a BCE and do not see the offer. Any idea how it's targeted?

I just wanted to check if I have this offer too but now found out that the whole website of AX changed and I cannot even find where these offers would be .. I hate this new site !!

Offer shows up on my BSP.

Could I just make 3 seperate $75 payments and get the credit right now? Or will I need to do over seperate statements?

I would think this should work if done in separate transactions. I am even thinking of testing out if the prepaid really does not work ...because I am not sure where Amex sees the difference if it posts as T-Mobile charge...

I tried that with AT&T yesterday and they wouldn't allow it, have to wait at least 24hrs.

Not sure about other cell phone companies.

I don't see them letting you make 3 payments at once lol I'm sure they are going to ensure that's not possible
