Wow I honestly didn’t know that.... okay looks like I can withdraw now! So you guys have been getting heaps of points doing deposits and withdrawals?

Have you done it? My understanding is that it automatically goes to my credit card if I originally used credit card when paying it through PayPal.

Anyone can advise how long we need to wait before we can withdraw to bank account? I deposited through PayPal (AmEx) back in December. Yesterday I tried to withdraw but was advised it needs to go back to PayPal. Hence I'll lose the AmEx points and I'd still be charged the 1% PayPal fee. The...

I answered my own question. Called AmEx and the overseas CSO believes that the Ascent rewards will have a new account number and my existing points will remain in the Ascent Premium account number (which can be moved across to the normal Ascent account upon calling up), and my Explorer will have...

Looking to see your thoughts on this one. I have Platinum Charge, Platinum Reserve and Explorer. At the moment both the Explorer and Platinum Reserve are linked to the Ascent Premium on my Platinum Charge. Thinking of closing the Platinum Charge. My understanding is that the Platinum Reserve...

Actually this seems to be what happened to me too. I got some points and I can only imagine it’s from my friend :) If anyone needs a referral link, please let me know. I know quite a bit about AmEx, happy to answer any questions.

I don’t think any of the promotions required the referee to reach a certain spend for the referrer to get points?

How long after the friend is approved does the referrer get the email notification about the bonus points? My friend got approved a week ago but I still haven’t got an email. He’s an existing AmEx card holder though, does that still work? Does he need to activate the card and/or make a...

Did you end up getting the Reserve?

5k points for the personal Platinum Charge? That sucks.

Have you spoken to an Australian call centre operator? Consensus is that you will have more luck with an Australian operator. Maybe call the personal Explorer line rather than the business Explorer line.

I see. How about the Business Platinum Charge, what sort of points were you getting out of that one? Thanks.

I’m interested to know this too. My Business Platinum Charge is linked to my Personal Platinum Charge. But I haven’t got Business Explorer. Did you apply for the Business Explorer before or after you had the personal Ascent card? If it was after, I would have thought the system would link it...

Interested to know experiences or speculations on whether we can get additional retention bonus for the Business Explorer. On top of the published 50k retention bonus points, I wonder if we can get more out of them. If we cannot then it’s probably better to go with the Personal Explorer where we...

Re: David Jones American Express - New Offer - 40,000 MR (20,000 SPG) - Annual Fee $9 I think it's system assessed, might be worth a shot calling them up and pointing to them that you've just closed your DJ AmEx...

It's a different rewards program. But that's the same excuse I was given for the Explorer and evidently someone agreed to link that one to Ascent. Maybe we need an Australian operator to do this. One thing I noticed is that the system didn't automatically link my David Jones to Ascent...

Now... not about the Explorer card, but has anyone linked their David Jones card to the Ascent or Ascent Premium? I just tried and didn't have success, but if someone has done it in the past, I will keep trying... haha.. I got a Philippines operator this afternoon.

Hi guys! Get $5 if you use my link: http://pricep.al/qCQ (I will get $5 too) Thank you :) :)

Earn $5 if you use my link: http://fbuy.me/fugTS (I will also earn $5) Thanks!!

This card is pretty good, gives you unlimited AmEx lounges and Priority Pass lounges. Also in addition to the great number of benefits already mentioned above, currently if you have this card and then apply for the Explorer card, you will get Ascent Premium points even when you use your Explorer...
