    Is there a step by step guide on how to do the syncing as I'm still a bit confused. :o

    This site helped me (an old non-techie): http://www.foursquareamex.com/easy-as-1-2-3.html

    Also they have the very latest deals on their website, Facebook, Google+ and Twitter too. Todays news is The Book of Mormon - Advance Ticket Sales :D

    Hmm - they list a lot of the expired offers without indicating they are expired - perhaps you should maintain your own site?!
    I think....

    lol - and agreed. For example "recent" specials hopelessly out of date. It's not like they add specials very often

    I sync-ed 3 cards using separate e-mail addresses, making sure to log out in between, and received 3 separate 'Congratulations' e-mails.

    I was able to load a couple of offers on to one card, but not the two others.

    In both cases, I get a message to check e-mail and password. I do so, repeat and get the same message. When clicking 'forgot password', I get the message that they have no such e-mail address registered! Yet they sent me the 'Congratulations' e-mails ...

    I sent FS an online message about one of them. They promise to send a response in two days.

    As I'm shopping tomorrow and could do with an answer before then, is there a way round this? Thanks for your advice.

    Is the Congratulations email from Amex or Foursquare? You need to register 3 different accounts with Foursquare before syncing, which I'm not sure if you've done.

    Just use all 3 cards tomorrow if they're synched. If you don't get credited within 4 days of the transaction being posted, call Amex. As per my posts above, the cashback may get paid regardless of checking in and loading. The synchronisation of the card to a foursquare account is what's most important

    Thanks. AmexNetwork (the 2nd and 3rd ones). I can't log in to Foursquare. I'm getting the messages I mentioned.

    Thanks, good idea.

    I'll be careful not to overspnd, though ...
