January 14, 2017 - I signed up for the American Express EveryDay Card on the sign-up offer of - Membership Reward points as long as I spent over $2000.00 in 3 months. I met the terms of the offer by spending over $2200.00 in the first three months - which was confirmed by several American Express representatives - and 6 months later I have still not received the points. During this same time I also added a American Express Offer on two different American Express cards that said I would earn - points if I spend $200.00 at a hotel chain. I spent the $200.00 dollars on both cards ( $400.00 total ) a...

January 7, 2017 - I have an American Express Blue Cash credit card. And this credit card has an introductory rate of 0.00 % for balance transfers, and a 13.49 % interest rate on purchases.
