Signed up for the Blue Cash Preferred -- $150 bonus + 5% on $4,000 in travel expenses back in August. It came with a 0% intro APR.
Amex is now trying to charge me interest.
Went on chat, he told me 0% purchase APR wasn't included... I told him I had a screenshot of my offer and he opened an investigation... I guess I'll find out at some point? The agent just said "save your screenshot, they'll notate the result on your account." I don't really know what that means, and will probably call by week's end just to follow up.
Just wanted to remind you to save your offer screenshots. Funnily enough, I thought 12 months of 0% intro APR was standard on the BCP?
I believe it is standard? Good thing you have the screen shots!
I've had two situations with AMEX where they came back later and cleared up promotional miscalculations. Granted each took several months, but I didn't prompt them they just did it.
One related to a holiday APR which was apparently supposed to extend until the purchases were paid off, so they credited back some interest cost.
The other was for a BT offer on a new EDP that wasn't available after sign up. They created a window for BT to be done a few months ago.
Eventually I would expect you will see any interest credited off.
OP- also you can look at your first statment...on around page 4 it will have the promotional 0% with the end date. You can send them that too. Also make sure they have a record for all of your payments being on time.
Good luck in getting this squared away.
Heard back. 0% was turned on until next November and interest was refunded.
Congrats, thanks for the update.
