MSE News: Amex holders offered £25 cashback at London stores

Thanks everyone, I've had another go now and it's worked. I think they must still have still been updating their systems for Lloyds/Avios. It now seems to work so I suggest anyone with a Lloyds card give it another try too.

Harvey's and then Selfridge's on Sunday, then?

Now, to find the best contact email address or phone number for those pesky small shops that haven't registered my transaction, or refused my card....

On Oxford Street. £50 spent in Primark 10 mins ago. No email. You get the £5 cashback emails almost instantly. Should I be concerned?

There are several AmEx offers at the moment. Not sure about the £5/£10 offer, but Primark are participating in the spend £50 get £25 credit promotion.

I registered for the WestEndVIP promotion yesterday with AMEX, and spent just over £50 at the John Lewis on Oxford Street. I received an e-mail almost immediately saying that they had recognised my transaction and that I will receive £5 under the Shop Small promotion (!). I never registered for the Shop Small promotion, so I hope that this is just a case of them not updating the e-mail, rather than the £25 promotion not working at all.
- Did anyone else receive the same e-mail?
- Did anyone receive an e-mail saying that they will receive £25?

No emails and 5x£50 spent in shops all on the list. I'll fight tooth and nail for my £125 cashback!

Hope you did it on 5 different cards, as the promo only works once per card..

I also didn't get an e-mail spending >£50 at Topman..

It would be foolish of me to assume that the cashback is paid for each location as per £5 shop small promo but that's exactly what I did! It was 2 cards so only £50 cashback not £125 [hangs head in shame]. Still got 20-30% in Selfridges and GAP.

You can read the terms as once per location but I can see that's not the case by the explicit max £25 further down.

Making up for it slightly now with £10 shop small cashback in a restaurant

Just spent £50 at HMV oxford circus. They also had an in store promotion of spend £50 and get £5 off. Luckily my purchase came to £57 so worked out well.

No email yet, did anyone pick up the red or lime Amex bags being handed out in the streets ?
