Terms of the Offer: LINK You'll receive up to $100 off as a credit. If you spend less than the offer amount, your discount will be equal to the amount of your purchase (before tax and shipping). For example, if your offer is "up to $100 off" and you spend $5, you will receive a discount of $5. Please allow 1-2 billing cycles for this amount to be reflected on your Bill Me Later statement. It's a limited time offer that's only available through PayPal. Complete your purchase before midnight ET on October 31st, 2009 to receive this offer. Limit one per customer. Select "Yes, I'd like No Payments for 90 Days..." to be eligible to receive the promotional offer. We'll send you monthly statements:
If you pay in full by the promotion expiration date as listed below you will not be charged finance charges. For example if purchase is made in: Date to pay in full by to avoid finance charges (Promotion Expiration Date): October 2009 February 1, 2010 If payment in full is not made by the promotion expiration date listed above, finance charges will apply from the transaction date. If you do not pay off your purchase by the promotion expiration date, you will be charged interest at an ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE of 19.99% beginning on the posting date of the purchase. The Minimum Finance Charge is $2.00. If approved, CIT Bank will make a loan to you for the amount financed to pay for your purchase.

About the special offer: Get up to $100 off & 90 Days to Pay
* You'll receive up to $100 off as a credit. If you spend less than the offer amount, your discount will be equal to the amount of your purchase (before tax and shipping). For example, if your offer is "up to $10 off" and you spend $5, you will receive a discount of $5. Please allow for 1-2 billing cycles for this amount to be reflected on your Bill Me Later statement.
this sounds sneaky.
you get "up to $100". but you can also get "up to $10". The offer amount varies?

So basically, I just have to make a $100 purchase, and remember to pay? Can I say "Bill me Later" and then pay right away? When is the earliest you can pay by? And if you pay on time, did I read it correctly that there are no charges?
EDIT: I just read the linked page, and it says you can pay right away, and if you do then there are no charges.
Will this work on ANY paypal purchase (such as eBay)? I'm kind of skeptical of this, but I'd love $100 off!

So after 2 months when this hopefully posts the credit, you better pay it off before 90 days are up.
" Do you review my credit report every time I make a purchase? CIT Bank does not review your credit report for each transaction. However, your credit report may be reviewed for some transactions and periodically to provide you with the maximum possible buying power. "
So how do we get them to stop periodically reviewing our credit reports?
Would love to use this at Newegg for 100 off a new mobo. Dang expensive X58...

Yup, I went thru the checkout at Newegg and then selected paypal and then bill me later and nothing showed up. All this did was now I probably have an inquiry on credit report since they approved me for bill me later but there was no offer of any kind. Sucks.
You apply prior to your purchase. You will then be approved. As part of that approval you should get a credit. For how much may depend on your application, hence the "up to". As to where you find out your credit I don't know, as I haven't done any of the steps yet. I certainly wouldn't buy anything until you find out.
Ditto. So how do you know how much discount you are eligible for before you purchase anything? Sounds too risky to me, unless you are buying something that you really need. The chances of that are a little low
I got an email today from for a BML offer on eBay, it says "special offer for our best customers" but it doesn't say anything about $ off. NOt sure if it's the same type of offer or not; too bad the deal seems overly vague on how to obtain the discount.
It is for sure you can use it for eBay purchase.So these offers are for preselected paypal accounts only, it sounds. I'm guessing that this person hasn't used BML before, so basically this post should just be letting people know to check their mailboxes for the notice.
If you click the FAQ on the link from the OP it reads "Select "Yes, I'd like No Payments for 90 Days..." to be eligible to receive the promotional offer."
So it seems not only do you have to have received the email, but you have to purchase at least $250 of merchandise. At least this was the case for me on Newegg. I put the Antec Nine Hundred for $109 in my cart and when I filled out the info for Bill me later it said "Add $129 of merchandise to be eligible for No payments for 90 days".
This deal is a no go for me... too sketchy... Good luck to all those who decide to go through with it!
