  Nice one. Saw the amex email but didn’t realise you could part pay.

  I received the email a few days but deleted it because I knew that it was poor value.

  Rob’s trick worked, only used 2 points. Thanks Rob.

  This worked a treat, but gave the error message when I tried to redeem just 2 points. Making it a £1 redemption (222 points) worked, so there appears to be a minimum in there somewhere. I figure that’s 7p per point overall, so quite happy!

  • JaFooli says:

    I typed in £ 0.01 and it was 2 points, so no minimum.

      OK. I did the same but then it rejected the code as invalid. Ah well.

        it must be an Amazon supplied item

        it has to be Gold or Plat Amex card

        you have to choose to pay with that card

        you then use 0.01p of Amex points

        then you apply the code & it takes off he £15

    I don’t follow your maths?

      222 points for a £15 benefit?? approx. 7p per point ??

      • Genghis says:

        21 Dec21 December 13:01

        I see. I guess. So as I used 2 MR points for £15.01 off, that must be £7.555 a point.

  Thanks, I had a spare 70 points, excellent offer. I am quite new to your website and it is excellent!

  So am I stuck in paying with the amex card if I do this? I tried to apply 2 points but I cant then change to pay with my gift card balance?

  • Rob says:

    21 Dec21 December 09:37

    Yes

    If you have your default payment set to gift card then it will let you pay with the gift card balance before trying to take payment from the Amex card.

      Not with this offer in my experience – that seemed to cause to to reject it. I had to stick with paying on the Amex to get the code to work.

        It did work. It wanted to take renaming amount from my Amex on the Amazon app. When I used the web version, the balance was taken from my gift card balance

        • Alan says:

          21 Dec21 December 22:52

          Weird, on the web version it wouldn’t let me use my GC balance

    Thanks for the idea. – just got 180 Finish tablets for 9.99!

      On the advice of the dishwasher technician we buy big boxes of dishwasher detergent from Sainsbury’s for £3, He said that all the fancy stuff in the tablets usually dissolves at the wrong time and there is a rinse aid dispenser in the machine.

  Thanks for the Christmas gift Rob, read the Amex email last night and decided it was terrible value. Then read your post this morning and decided 2 points for £15 was exceptional value! (Also combines with subscribe and save).

  I just tried a number of different products but it is saying ‘The promotional code you entered cannot be applied to your purchase.’ And I even tried dishwasher tabs!

  • Peter K says:

    I did the same with a different product but remember to make sure it is sold and delivered by Amazon. It’s awkward at first to spot where it says it but I’ve just got the discount now.
