  O/T bits:

  I have an offer on my Amex Platinum charge card for shop small, 27/3/19 to 12/5/19. Spend £10 get £5 statement credit.

  Not on my Amex Platinum companion credit card.

  • Louise says:

    Nothing on my cards, strange if it’s starting today? Any link to map?

    • Tom says:

      27 Mar27 March 06:33

      Nothing here too.. weird?

  • Shoestring says:

    27 Mar27 March 06:30

    interesting! not on my Gold yet & nothing on the Amex Shop Small site

    that’d be a nice 7 week availability as well – shame for those who have just cancelled cards for 2 years, though 🙂

    • The Original Nick says:

      27 Mar27 March 06:58

      I seem to have lost all my saved offers on all cards and only have one offer of refer friends. I’m sure I had around 30 saved offers.

  • BJ says:

    27 Mar27 March 06:37

    +1 but on my nectar card but none of the others.

    • paul says:

      27 Mar27 March 07:40

      i have it on 1 of 4 cards only, but annoyingly not on the one i need to spend on 🙂

    • Freddy says:

      27 Mar27 March 07:40

      Shop small is on my SPG but not on the wife’s gold card yet

    • Shoestring says:

      27 Mar27 March 07:51

      I’ve got a hunch they release these to cards in chunks of alphabet/ surname, so worth checking later. Not on our SPG either.

  • E says:

    27 Mar27 March 07:42

    On my husband’s Platinum but not my additional card on his account. Not on our BA or SPG cards either.

  • The Streets says:

    27 Mar27 March 07:53

    I have a feeling it’s on AMEX cards that have been open for more than 4+ months

    • Shoestring says:

      27 Mar27 March 08:14

      Gold is 16 months old – no offer though…infamy,infamy, Amex got it infamy 🙂

      • Alan says:

        27 Mar27 March 08:25

        The spirit of Kenneth Williams is alive and well!

    • Chas says:

      27 Mar27 March 09:15

      Not on my (or Mrs) various BAPP, Gold or SPG cards, several of which have been open longer than 4+ months.

      @Shoestring – my surname is towards the beginning of the alphabet, so unless they are working backwards I’m not sure your hunch is correct.

    • Liz says:

      27 Mar27 March 09:36

      Not on our BAPP and SPG which I’ve held for months.

    • BJ says:

      27 Mar27 March 09:56

      I think they have likely gone to cards with little recent activity.

      • Liz says:

        27 Mar27 March 15:13

        Not that theory either – currently using the BAPP but not used the SPG for a couple of months – nowt on either! And I so love a good small shop promo!

  • The Streets says:

    27 Mar27 March 08:18

    The participating shops are anything but small! Nandos, Pret, Costa? All my usual local favourite Independent places aren’t showing this time.. most pubs are though!

    I wonder if i can visit different nandos and still get multiple half price chicken?

    • Shoestring says:

      27 Mar27 March 08:22

      it’s not once per offer type, but once per outlet – always was in the past – so yes, you can

      but does that mean you can see a map? in which case pls post link

      • Barry says:

        27 Mar27 March 08:46

        Terms say:
        Only one £5 statement credit per UK Card.

        Doesn’t look like this can be used multiple times.

      • Shoestring says:

        27 Mar27 March 09:07

        oh right, nothing to get too het up about then if they missed me out

      • The Streets says:

        27 Mar27 March 10:09

        Just spoken to AMEX and they tell me “The eligible merchants can be found on the Map and multiple charges can be made”.. only way to find out is to test it out!

      • Lumma says:

        27 Mar27 March 11:33

        Is that not just a map of everywhere that accepts amex?

  • Russ says:

    27 Mar27 March 10:21

    Others on our Gold CC:
    Radisson
    Emirates
    Jimmy Choo

  • LewisB says:

    27 Mar27 March 12:09

    My Beer54 offer was spend £24 and get £18 back. £24 is the cost of a case with delivery.

  • stevenhp1987 says:

    27 Mar27 March 13:15

    Not on any of mine or my wife’s supplementary cards 🙁

  • Alan says:

    27 Mar27 March 22:27

    Not on my Plat but now have Europcar/Hertz/Avis!

• JP says:

  27 Mar27 March 06:05

  Is Do&Co on the Atlanta route?

• Josh says:

  27 Mar27 March 06:12

  Does the Do&Co changes improve the First catering as well?

• Callum says:

  27 Mar27 March 06:20

  Good, I can’t say I was a big fan of the last meals I got in Club World. Granted vegetarian isn’t generally very good anyway, but I think pasta in white sauce (not cheese – just plain white sauce) and garden peas for dinner, followed by a lump of unflavoured soggy tofu in an unbuttered white roll for breakfast is a bit ridiculous!

• Chris Huggett says:

  27 Mar27 March 06:28

  5 guests ? So the already heaving BA lounge at T5 is going to become even more overcrowded! Soon it will be quieter in the main terminal.

  • Shoestring says:

    27 Mar27 March 06:35

    but it was already hard-tested a couple of times at peak holiday, so presumably there aren’t enough GGLs flying with 5 others to make a significant difference

  • Nick Burch says:

    27 Mar27 March 10:10

    GGL already get to give out 1 gold and 2 silver cards a year, so it must be fairly rare to be travelling with guests who you haven’t given your partner cards to!

    (Time it right and you can give out 2 gold and 4 silver effectively… nominate people just after a new membership year for them and they get 23.9 months!)

• Peter says:

  27 Mar27 March 06:35

  Part pay instead of Pay pay at the top of the paragraph.

  • Rob says:

    27 Mar27 March 09:06

    Fixed!

• Chechire Pete says:

  27 Mar27 March 06:45

  Must be a reason why only GGL from the trials, as I got the targeted email many times last year as just Gold. Didn’t use it once however! Not sure what that told them and how they analysed the data.

• Ian M says:

  27 Mar27 March 06:50

  Are all Club Europe routes Do&Co now? I’ve done Warsaw, Barcelona and Budapest in recent weeks and they were all Do&Co.

  • Matt says:

    27 Mar27 March 07:06

    Do&Co pudding or the whole meal?

    • AndyF says:

      27 Mar27 March 11:50

      I’ve recently come back form Rome (Two weeks ago) and they were using Do&Co desserts. Im not sure about the meal however.

    • Ian M says:

      27 Mar27 March 13:34

      Good question, certainly Do&Co pudding, but just thought in which case the whole meal must surely be Do&Co?
