BCE Signup Bonus

I was approved for the Amex BCE on 7/25.  First transaction was on 7/31.  I have since run about $2700 through and on Friday I got my $100 signup bonus.  

 

I am impressed. Smiley Happy

Yep, exact same thing happened to me! I had an 1100 dollar charge that I ran through it and was credited my 100 back on that particular charge within 2 days!

No, no crApples in this house Smiley Wink

 

I made $750ish purchase for the first billing cycle and paid in full the day after the statement cut.

 

I did purchase a laptop for about $2k - I have another thread about that "experience".  

 

So far I am impressed with Amex.

Yep, a major annoyance with Amex.  Cap One and Barclays post with every transaction, many others at statement close.  Of my cards, only Amex takes an extra month.

When I redeemed the reward dollars of my BCE, I could not use it for then current statement. It had to be the next one. It's really annoying!!!
