  Something starting rather than ending: American Express ShopSmall on 2nd December (next Saturday) until 17th. No doubt Rob will cover this during the week.
  Remember that, like all Amex statement credit offers, this is per card rather than per account. So you need to make sure that you have the maximum number of cards.
  There is still time to apply for supplementary cards and don’t forget Genghis’s tip about having a supplementary card in your own name on Amex (set relationship to ‘other’). You can also get supplementaries for Lloyds Avios Amex cards but don’t bother with MBNA because their supplementaries have the same number as the main card. Non-Aex cards can be registered via the ShopSmall microsite.

  • Genghis says:

    Good tips. To clarify though, the extra supp tip was originally @Alan’s.

    • Ba-flyer says:

      26 Nov26 November 08:49

      Can anyone confirm if getting a sup. Card in your name still triggers the bonus points or Avios?

      • mark2 says:

        26 Nov26 November 09:03

        it seems to for BAPP but not SPG. Can’t speak for MR cards.

      • Sunshinecoast says:

        26 Nov26 November 09:16

        Bonus points on Amex Gold for sup cardholder posted this week.

      • Paul says:

        26 Nov26 November 11:07

        I know you get bonuses for referring someone for a new card but what are the bonuses for adding a supplementary card? I’ve never had any bonus points post for supplementaries

      • Graham Walsh says:

        26 Nov26 November 12:16

        I got 5k bonus points for getting a 2nd plat card in my name.

      • Genghis says:

        26 Nov26 November 14:10

        3k on BAPP

      • Paul says:

        26 Nov26 November 14:19

        Is this still a current offer? Can’t see any bonus for adding a supplementary card to my BAPP

      • mark2 says:

        26 Nov26 November 15:07

        it is not trumpeted but usually happens.

      • Sunshinecoast says:

        26 Nov26 November 18:36

        Applied for a supplementary card on hubby’s gold account this and the 3k points are showing already.

      Thanks to Alan too.

      • Alan says:

        26 Nov26 November 13:02

        Cheers – and good summary 😀 Will need to see how I manage this year, did pretty well when I was in Oz a couple of years ago and they had the same promo – four excellent cafes near me visited multiple times!!

    • Alan says:

      26 Nov26 November 12:54

      Thanks, Genghis 🙂

  • Lady London says:

    26 Nov26 November 11:57

    @mark2 do you have the microsite web address please?

    • Genghis says:

      26 Nov26 November 15:18

      Does anyone have any good central London shop small tips?

    • Lady London says:

      26 Nov26 November 18:20

      thanks @mark2

  Niwctv bix at Tesco is discounted bit the promo 500 Clubcard points seem to have vanished on the sky kids version

• Rob says:

  26 Nov26 November 10:24

  Won’t be this year now.

• Tony M says:

  26 Nov26 November 11:15

  OT. To reapply for an amex platinum after 6 months to receive the bonus again, is it from the date the account was closed or the date when last received the bonus? thanks

  • Paul says:

    26 Nov26 November 11:18

    From the date the account was closed

    • mark2 says:

      26 Nov26 November 12:21

      You will have received a letter stating the closing date.

  • Rob says:

    26 Nov26 November 12:27

    Closed

    • Tony M says:

      26 Nov26 November 12:52

      Thanks all

  OT Lloyd’s Avios card. Wasn’t sure where to post this but after the problems 6 months ago when I received, along with many other folk, both Avios and cash as compensation for problems with the account. Since then no problems as far as I am aware, but yesterday I received another apology letter saying they hoped to resolve issues by Jan, and a cheque for another £75. Completely unprompted and as far as I know not related to any current issues. Anyone else?

  • Alan says:

    26 Nov26 November 13:22

    Saw a similar post a day or two ago – perhaps from Anna?

    So disappointed mine have always posted fine!! :'(

    • Liz says:

      26 Nov26 November 14:46

      I still haven’t had mine resolved. My complaints manager is due to phone me with an update on Wed so I will tell him about all these people getting another £75 – assume I will get mine too – I am also going to ask for the £24 fee to be waived again as our renewal date is 1/12.

      • meta says:

        26 Nov26 November 15:25

        Lucikly the problem with my account was only that Lloyds opened a new account. Avios CS sorted it out by linking two accounts, so hoping no further issues.

• Graham Walsh says:

  26 Nov26 November 15:41

  Sounds like I need to apply for a Lloyd’s Avios

  • John says:

    26 Nov26 November 16:21

    You should because everyone expects the product to be withdrawn in the next year or so

      Hi all

      I’m fairly new to all this, and wanted to take this opportunity to thank all who post for the help to us noobs to this “hobby” of collecting.
      I try and read comments most days and take advantage of Robs emails regarding promos.
      Please all be aware that just because some of us do not post comments that we are not grateful for the help you experienced collectors give us on here.
      Please keep up the good work and all advice is welcome

    • Graham Walsh says:

      26 Nov26 November 19:59

      Just applied

      Cracking offer too – just don’t need or have any big spend coming up.
      00.00% p.a. for the first 29 months on balances transferred within 90 days of account opening. 3.00% fee applies*
      00.00% p.a. for the first 29 months on purchases.

        It’s been a good card for me to have long term, as a solo traveller the upgrade voucher is great, and no fees when spending on the card. Unfortunately never had any issues with avios crediting so no free money from Lloyds for me..!
