cant combine the deals, bonus cards is for eCard, you must buy physical cards to get in AMEX deal

amhidogha said:   Sorry for the newb question. Are the approx $650 GCs discussed here AMEX GCs or Dell GCs?Buy physical Dell GCs using your AMEX credit card from Dell.com after activating the AMEX Dell sync promo

$500 Dell GC comes out to $450 (using 10% off coupon) plus you add another $150 Dell GC or $100+$50 GCs to the same order -- you pay $600 using your AMEX card for $650 Dell GC order. You'll get $150 back from AMEX Sync promo so in the end $650 Dell GCs for $450 using your AMEX card

I was looking to buy a Canon T4i from a few months now. And finally I pulled a trigger with this offer. Total of $856 for T4i and 18-55mm lens( So net price of $706). I am not sure, if this is good buy or not. Do I have to cancel my order.

Any suggestions please.

Tried to tweet for the deal and received the following response: @AmexSync: sorry, max # of Cardmembers have enrolled in #AmexDellOffer. Visit http://t.co/TEbEe9oq for more offers.

That was quick...

Quick Question guys, Does Dell do PriceMatch with Amazon?

SAMs has the same T4i kit for 499

Dell took a long time to send my order, and they finally did on 01/07/13, and it was charged to my card on 1/10/13. I haven't received the statement credit yet. I know that the terms and conditions specify up to 8 weeks, but from previous promotions, it has taken less than a week. Anybody here has received the credit?What transaction date does the $599+ charge show?

Got mine without any problems:
12/31 ordered GCs
1/3 they marked it shipped
1/4 charge posted to my account with a transaction date of 12/31
1/4 got $150 credit
1/8 order shipped by UPS one day
1/9 got my GCs

Send them an online message -- they may apply it manually or they may ask you to wait 8 weeks before contacting them or you may have to fight for it due to the transaction date falling out of promo period

After you placed the online order, Dell had a few days to either process the charge or release the hold on the preauthorized amount (they're not allow to keep preauth holds for weeks, they either have to approve the charge or release the hold within a few days)

For almost all of the orders under this promo Dell has been marking them shipped a few days after ordering so the original transaction date stays in place (even though they were actually shipping them out 1-2 weeks later), but for some reason on your order they decided to release the preauth hold and then charge your card a few weeks later which caused your 1/8 transaction date so you may have to push for a manual sync credit with AMEX
