                  @gimme: I believe the fee is $199 p.a. (waived for first year) but yes it is separate and the statements are also separate with the payment being made to Amex direct which makes me think that I will be able to keep it after cancelling the Mastercard.

                    @Yola: oh yes you can keep it for sure. I was just saying you will be incur the Amex portion of the fee. As a cheapskate I refuse to pay ANY fee to CC providers.

      I have two cards on the same account that are both in my name. AMEX actually suggested that when they offered me 7500 bonus points for adding a supplementary cardholder.
      I've currently got a promotion on at the moment, I expect it's targeted, where if I spend $750 on the supplementary card in three months I get 3000 bonus points. Given I usually spend more than $750 per month on the primary card, this is very easy to do, just swap the card that's in my wallet with the one that usually sits in my drawer until Shop Small.

      Learn to Google, it will help you a lot in life.

      Yes, it says "where to buy", but I remember reloading at the UWA one years ago.

        Badly worded, I meant to say with amex, not in general. Obviously.. otherwise i would never have caught a train or bus all these years without that reload :(

    • PissLUR on 29/10/2018 - 16:02

      yes you can. but you will lose the 20% discount for auto top up.

      • SaberX on 30/10/2018 - 01:16

        ahhhh good point. how does that work? I still have the auto top up on, will all my credit now now get the 20% discount on smartrider credit loaded? Or just the credit that I manually load to get this shop small?

        Would think the $10 back would be worth more than the 20% more expsive fares?

        Well I ended up with $750 of OPSM gift cards and a $150 Myer one across six Amex cards. I guess I could say I 'earned' $360 in savings or should I say I spent $540 cash for $900 in gift cards and 'earned' nothing?

        Whatever the case, I totally loved that Amex Vogue offer and will be looking forward to getting my expensive multi-focal lenses next month during the Family and Friends OPSM offer in late October.

      Start looking at the map now to plan your purchases. I typically spend at fruit shops, chemist, butcher, homewares. There are also a number of dentists, physios etc on the list so that might work for you. You will get ideas if you look at the map in your area.

      • Turd on 27/09/2018 - 12:57

        Yeah! Will probably have do that

    • Neoika on 30/10/2018 - 19:20

      You can sell them by unlink the card from your account and give the card numbers/PIN to a buyer to link, then buyer reports lost, balance transfer to his existing card.

      Or fill a refund form.

      No, unless they have the same card number. You'll have to register each unique card number you have

      • trotsky on 23/10/2018 - 09:39

        Just a question for a newbie to small shop - is this done in the form of saving the offer to your card like other campaigns or do you manually enter all the card numbers?

        • kerfuffle on 23/10/2018 - 09:45
          +2

          You can save the offer to your card using the Amex app; if the supplementary cards aren't linked to an online account, you'll need to register them manually

          • virhlpool on 25/10/2018 - 10:36

            @kerfuffle: Or even by logging in on Amex web account. Not sure if this offer has any cap for maximim number of cards' registered overall though.

        How do you have 12 cards with 2 accounts? I thought it was max 4 supps per account

        • illumination on 31/10/2018 - 13:21
          +1

          How do you know he has 2 accounts lol

          Anyway to answer your question, there actually is either no limit of supps, or a limit of 99 supp cards.

          Most cards however, say "4 free supplementary cards" - which could imply you could get more if you pay - but I don't think it's enforced? At least based on personal experience, it doesn't seem to be.

          • joeiwu on 31/10/2018 - 13:23

            @illumination: I wish this was the case but was told that there isn't a "costing" to supplementary cards because you are not able to add more than 4. This was a wee while ago on the phone with AMEX. Happily proven wrong from someone with more than 4 supplementary cards tied to a primary card holder that isn't a business card holder?

            • illumination on 31/10/2018 - 13:24

              @joeiwu:

              Happily proven wrong from someone with more than 4 supplementary cards tied to a primary card holder that isn't a business card holder?

              Ok me. I've got I think 8 supp cards under one account and maybe 6 under another?

              I don't know a good "formula" to ensure this works, but if the assistant over the phone who you're asking to issue you a supp card says you can't get anymore, hang up and call again, because you should be able to. As I said, they just "advertise" it as "4 free supp cards"

              • joeiwu on 31/10/2018 - 13:25

                @illumination: OOO that's awesome to know…! Thanks! I totally did not realise this was possible. Do you pay any extra for supplementary cards after the count of 5?

                • illumination on 31/10/2018 - 13:26

                  @joeiwu: I wasn't asked to pay extra for any of the ones beyond 5, so no.

                  • joeiwu on 31/10/2018 - 13:27

                    @illumination: Thanks for the info, I shall try in the foreseeable future. Maybe the 5 limit is just a manual checking (based on the rep). Either way awesome to know, thanks!

                    • illumination on 31/10/2018 - 13:29

                      @joeiwu: That's cool.

                      Side tip: try and get a supplementary card issued in your own name. It's possible but again not particularly easy. If you are persistent about it and really want one in your own name, my suggestion is just hang up and call again if the attendant (correctly) says no. Advantage of this is during deals where you're asked for ID, the card is in your own name anyway.

                      • joeiwu on 31/10/2018 - 13:33

                        @illumination: Hmm I didn't even think that is even an option, thanks for the tip. Assuming you are successful with that too. Good work!
