Enjoy 5% cashback on your credit card spending for three months.

What's the deal?

American Express are currently offering a market leading 5% cashback on all spending on their Platinum Moneyback Credit Card for three months .

This means that you could earn up to £200 for nothing as 5p of every £1 you spend on the card during the introductory period will make its way back to your wallet.

What's more, as an added bonus you will continue to benefit from the cashback advantage of this card even after the 5%offer expires, although the exact return will depend on the amount you spend.

Annual spends of under £3,500 will attract a cashback rate of 0.5%, with spending between £3,501 and £10,000 attracting a cashback rate of 1% and spends of £10,001 or more attracting a rate of 1.5%.

It is worth bearing in mind that this card has an APR of 18.9% meaning it may not be the best option for those who do not intend to pay off their balance in full each month.

How do I benefit?

Simply apply for an American Express Platinum Moneyback Credit Card and spend on it as you would any other credit card, the cashback will accumulate automatically.

Expiry

The 5% cashback offer is applicable to spending on the card in the first 3 months from account opening. After this time the tiered cashback rate will apply.

Conditions

The 5% cashback eligible amount is capped at £4,000 over the three month introductory period.

You will need to be a UK resident over the age of 18, earning over £20,000 a year and have a good credit history to be eligible for this card.

At present I need a position that suits my spending and lifestyle requirements
Got a degree in Education
and need a loan to pave my backgarden
and tile my kitchen floor
and decorate my walls in kitchen, bathroom, hallway, front room, and bedrooms.
I would like to clear my balance on my catelogue
and also my credit cards
only a loan will help
I just need to get a positon for the degree I passed in 1990 to be able to do all this
Who is going to give me a loan, just because I've got a degree
So I'll have to find an employer out there who is going to offer me a position based on my experience and qualification
because surely no creditors are going to.
Now just look at Halifax
They were offering £3000 overdraft to students
and were not offering their credit cards to those who were working
How dumb is that?
Credit firms need to be more sympathtic to those who are in employment, and give thier word that they will pay back. And not tell borrowers that they are unable.
