  • ronnknee on 13/02/2019 - 14:10

    Can this be stacked with Entertainment Book voucher?

      Yes

        Sweet :)

    • Iwantthatbargain on 14/02/2019 - 15:32

      Actually No.. Depends on the restaurants. Few restaurants have refused, as they have to pay to Dimmi, when it is booked by them

  • CyberMurning on 13/02/2019 - 14:12

    i dont get it. targetted

    • itslittfam on 13/02/2019 - 14:13

      It's not on the amex app, you just have to sync your amex card on your thefork account and you are automatically eligible for it.

      • CyberMurning on 13/02/2019 - 14:34

        Ok thanks

      • bluedufflecoat on 13/02/2019 - 14:39

        What if you're previously synced with dimmi? Do you have to do it again?

        Edit: previously synced card is still synced.

    Thanks OP.

    Bookings made via the TheFork iPhone app is not valid for the offer.

    Good to know as that’s how I usually make bookings.

    whatthefork, i don't get it

  • Charlie Dont Surf on 13/02/2019 - 14:40

    Probably been asked before, but what Amex card(s) are people getting (with zero annual fee, low hurdle requirements etc) to take advantage of these OzB deals?

    • bluedufflecoat on 13/02/2019 - 14:49
      +1

      I've got the Amex Qantas Discovery.

    • FareEvader on 13/02/2019 - 14:52

      The American Express Essential Credit Card doesn't have an annual fee and you can access the deals

    • Moderatorneil on 13/02/2019 - 14:54

      We were discussing this in the last meeting. Often people ask the same question as you in Amex deals. Would having a page similar to Mobile Plans be useful? We're thinking of showing all Amex credit card deals and then split categories with say No Annual Fee, Qantas, Velocity.

      • NeoX on 13/02/2019 - 15:02
        +2

        yes please!

      • Charlie Dont Surf on 13/02/2019 - 15:09

        Probably not a bad idea Neil, if it doesn't require too much work for the team.

        My request was a pretty lazy one. A few minutes on the Amex page ("compare cards") revealed that the Essential card is a good enough product just for accessing these deals.

      • CyberMurning on 13/02/2019 - 15:18
        +2

        nope i think not necessary

      • THICKnSLOW on 14/02/2019 - 00:23

        I don't think a page dedicated to Amex is necessary at this point in time, where Amex are reducing their reward points earning for those cards, along with reducing the number of these AMEX portal offers.

        Bit like our global warming situation, the boat has sailed, a little too late.

        • carwashhair on 14/02/2019 - 07:47

          For you, maybe, but others are still free to see a bargain where they may…

      • FareEvader on 14/02/2019 - 08:41
        +1

        Not necessary - a simple Google search will have plenty of information on credit cards (including Amex) whereas mobile plans aren't consolidated and updated.

      • gutenmuach on 18/02/2019 - 17:37
        +1

        Yes please!

      • potm on 22/02/2019 - 19:23
        +1

        The page should include a suggestion that members should take advantage of a large welcome bonus card before getting a no annual fee card. Quite a few ozbargainers have faced regret later after getting a no annual fee amex.

        • Yola on 23/02/2019 - 15:47

          Yes very true.

    • davebern on 14/02/2019 - 09:20

      The offer was not listed for me when I logged in, but going by similar AMEX offers in the past, I was able to use them more than once.

  • cooni on 13/02/2019 - 15:00

    Works multiple times or once per card?

    • stoodamire on 13/02/2019 - 17:44

      Good question. The t&cs don’t mention any limit.

    Dinner sorted. Cleaned out the fridge this morning and threw away most of our perishables. Bavarian has 50% off food tonight plus this deal. Amazing essentially I can order $100 of food for $30.

  • Ryballs on 13/02/2019 - 15:39

    Can we combine this with a half price dining offer to potentially get $100 worth of food for $30? https://www.thefork.com.au/about-thefork/thefork-special-off…

    • Michaelz101 on 13/02/2019 - 15:41
      +2

      Yes you can I just booked and both offers were included.

      • Ryballs on 13/02/2019 - 16:02

        None with both offers here in Perth unfortunately.

        Looks like this offer is better for pubs/drinks than the 50% off as it includes alcohol.

        • R3XNebular on 14/02/2019 - 10:57

          None in Brisbane either

    "thefork.com.au/amex will advise you if 10,000 bookings have been allocated and the offer is no longer available."

    YAY! I swear this is the first time it has been made clear whether an offer like this is consumed or not. You are normally left praying to get some cashback by doing something that isn't worth it if the cashback fails. WELL DONE! BRAVO!

  • hishaken on 13/02/2019 - 16:21

    if some restaurant says AMEX welcome but not $50 get $20, will we still get credit?

      No

      Now resolved.
      Just booked two restaurants that are in the Entertainment Book and will spend at least $67 to stack E Book 25% off with Amex spend $50 get $20 back.

  • davebern on 14/02/2019 - 09:04

    I am an AMEX card holder but the offer is not listed. Maybe it's targeted.

  • AnDyStYLe on 15/02/2019 - 15:47

    FUUUU…

    TGI Friday's doesn't take online bookings with TheFork.

    I'm guessing TGI Friday's pulled out when they introduced their own rewards system. We used to do TGI Friday's with Dimmi for the AMEX offer and combine with Ent Book. So sad =(

  • Samsungnote10 on 15/02/2019 - 16:40

    having a look now, not that I would expect but in VIC i have not found one place that has both the amex deal and half price dining

      Sake Hamer Hall does. Available on Sunday. Great food but yes quite pricey.

        nice find, I couldnt find out what the special menu was

        but I was looking at one particular day only, hence I couldnt find

      • bluesky on 15/02/2019 - 18:36

        Thanks Yola. Rang up about the set menus. In case this is of interest, was told they are here.

        • 5-course $79pp
        • 7-course $119pp
        • Samsungnote10 on 15/02/2019 - 21:36

          so for the 7 course, you could use the 50% off stack that $20 off for $40

          nice!

          • bluesky on 16/02/2019 - 04:27
            +1

            @Samsungnote10: It appears so. The time slots for the 50% off tend to be rather late though.

            • Samsungnote10 on 16/02/2019 - 10:17

              @bluesky: yeah I did notice that, but for $40 I will be more than happy

              was just thinking though, if you are going with 2 or more people, to get the $20 off, each person
              that would mean each person would have to sign up , register their own amex, and book as well?

              looking through the T/Cs, it says you need to make a booking, but does the amex card need both to trigger the booking and purchase?

              • bluesky on 16/02/2019 - 16:21
                +1

                @Samsungnote10: The $20 cashback is tied to a booking.

                My thoughts are - for 2 people, 50% off for 5-courses is $79. With $20 off, that is $59 - still a great bargain (they have gotten 2 hats before). Personally, trying to use 2 cards via 2 bookings, and possibly seated at separate tables :-), sounds like too much hassle.

                • Samsungnote10 on 16/02/2019 - 16:34

                  @bluesky: Yes no disagreement from me.

                  Splitting is a bit harder but it seems its booking linked so yeah will try one card

  • Craze on 16/02/2019 - 17:38

    Is it for one booking only, or applicable for multiple bookings?

    • kerfuffle on 16/02/2019 - 17:55

      I'd assume you can use it for multiple bookings so long as you're one of those first 12K bookings.

      • kerfuffle on 16/02/2019 - 20:29

        Oops, I mean first 10K bookings

    • Jared17 on 18/02/2019 - 16:01

    can confirm, that you can only use 1 card per booking,

    what I did was made two bookings at the same time using 2 different accounts, for 2 separate tables, but got one combined bill,
    used 2 cards to pay the bill, got the email for the main account straight away, but the second didnt come

  • Samsungnote10 on 22/02/2019 - 11:33

    dined monday
    used two cards, 2 separate bookings for one table

    got 1 credit back today,

    happy

  • roofyapple on 22/02/2019 - 17:12

    I still haven’t got anything, not even an email that Amex usually sends instantly when the transaction is made.

    • itslittfam on 22/02/2019 - 22:38
      +1

      I didnt get an email either, but a few days later I saw my $20 credit in my account. So hang in there a few days, and if it doesn't come still contact amex support

    • Samsungnote10 on 22/02/2019 - 22:52

      The amex notification is usually instant, so if you didnt get it after a day or two id say youre not going to get it

      but as mentioned, just call support, they are usually quite good with crediting you

    • Jared17 on 24/02/2019 - 12:15

      I got an email on Fri shortly after I paid with my card. You should email them just to be sure.
