You will need to ask Jessops to put through payment with three transactions on your Amex card of:
Why would they allow it?

Yes - as of today. On both cards that I used.

when you use amex card they will refund £50 for only for one transection. you can get only £50 for the three transection.

Hmmmn...
I purchased a 'collect in store' order today and split the payments over two Amex cards and received 'redeemed' confirmation emails for both transactions.
However, whether you can make multiple transactions on a single card and receive more than one £50 cashback is very debatable. No-one on the Amex thread has confirmed this yet - so this bargain is very theoretical.
And no bb8 - it hasn't been tried and tested. I suggest you try and let us know the result.

That makes sense.
Multiple cashback on one card not really.

They always have unlimited use when they specify "Offer valid every time"

Perhaps there is an option to buy vouchers at Jessops or charge type card that you can purchase at Jessops over 3 days using the same Amex card (if multiple purchases are allowed) and use those to purchase the camera once complete?

Does anyone actually have Amex. A card few retailers accept.
ThePasty to pauljanet
10 Dec 16#11
American Express Credit Cards are excepted at pretty much every place Visa & MasterCard are with the exception of small independent retailers and charity shops.
American Express Charge Cards & Diners Charge Cards are accepted hardly anywhere.
People get these confused all the time.
I have an Amex Credit Card and never think twice about using it, have only ever been told it wasn't accepted at a small independent shop in a fishing village.

After Jessops came back from the dead (so to speak), the guys in store said they no longer took Amex. Been ordering online with PayPal to get round this - anyone any idea when this changed?

According to the Jessops worker I spoke to yesterday they only just started accepting Amex in the last couple of days.

I don't have an Amex card, is £404 a good deal for this?

10 Dec 16#17
Wow, I wish I had an Amex Card. If anyone wants to get this and I'll give them £200 + my Canon 1000D with 18-55mm lens let me know (so you get an SLR for £50 and I get an upgrade).

I'm in NY right now but would be happy to meet in London and do this - I'll be back on the 20th

10 Dec 16#19
I'll be trying this today, will let you all know how I get on. I did call the store to ask and they said it should be fine.
For reference, I have 2 Amex's so I'll switch between the 2 to split up the transactions.

I went into Oxford Street the other day and they were more than happy to split transaction across multiple Amex cards. They really wanted me to buy the camera. :smile:
cmahey
10 Dec 162#21
Just bought 2 cameras, will let you know how I get on. I split the transaction 7 times! They were more than happy to do it.
Also, got 7 emails from American Express saying I have redeemed the offer.
I will await the cashback before doing anything otherwise return them!
No risk and worth it if you have the time, a car, willing to pay for parking and petrol. No guarantees, but worth a punt as they say.
I bought a Canon 750d and 760d. They also have Canon cashback and also Jessops are giving an additional £50 off per camera!
If the transaction splitting really works, it would be best deal

Great spot, will be buying mine on Monday as there is no store near me.

Fair play to the OP for this cashback idea. In regards to Amex it's not just small businesses that refuse Amex. I had an Amex company credit card for 8 years and found at least 50 percent of the time it wasn't accepted. Many Airlines, hotels and national restaurant chains also don't accept it because it's the highest cost to the retailer.... Other than diners club obviously. We ended up moving to a Mastercard and I've never had a problem since.
cmahey
10 Dec 16#24
Generally speaking, they are charged a percentage based on the value of the transaction. So probably no biggie to them as it's pretty much the same as if it was 1 larger transaction.
dcx_badass
10 Dec 16#25
I'm in Leeds, so it's a bit far unfortunately :disappointed:
Also it looks like I way undervalued my 1000D, seems to be worth about £100-150.
I purchased this today but added an accessories bundle to take it over £600. Paid 2 X £150 transactions on one card, then 2 X £150 transactions on a different card. All 4 transactions tracked straight away (email from Amex). Hopefully all goes through fine.
Just found this tonight which I missed so I'll go back to the shop and speak to them. Basically £10 more than the link above but get the accessories bundle included. Would have had £50 to spend on something else had I gone for this instead.
Has anyone tried the same card multiple times yet? I've asked over in the main Amex deal thread too.
cmahey
13 Dec 161#29
Well mine technically was 2 cards, with 7 transactions over both. So, 3 transactions on 1 card and 4 on the other.

I think it's 3 working days, so mine should be tomorrow.

I purchased Friday evening.
cmahey
14 Dec 16#36
So, to confirm to you all that my cashback has come through from Amex for £200 on each card. So a total of £400!
Seems as though some prices have changed so be careful when purchasing and be thrifty about whether the deals are good or not.

Purchased the 1300D, two lenses, 3 year insurance WITH Free Tripod and 32GB SD Card for £484, the guys at the Oxford Street branch were great, they split the invoice into three which meant that I got back £150 from Amex using same card, received confirmation email more or less immediately, plus another £20 Canon Cashback which brought it all down to £314 - BARGAIN. Well done Amex

Thanks for this, I ended up purchasing a Nikon 7200 with 5 transactions and cash back for 465. Seriously helpful salesman who laughed about splitting up the payments.
Just to give you all a heads up, I've just spoken with a branch (Bromley) about the offer and OF COURSE there was some who tried to profiteer heavily from it and they are in the process of pulling the offer!
So, call the branch ahead if you are considering using the offer.

It was available to the 50,000 who took up the offer from their account, rather than the first 50,000 who used the offer, or that is how I read it.
The unwritten rule of all these things is never call the company!

27 Dec 16#46
So looks to be working still. Purchased a new camera today, 3x £200 transactions and got the email confirming all 3
morgie to karl.pestell
27 Dec 16#47
Great, no reason it shouldn't be on still if saved to card. Why not 4 x £150 though?
karl.pestell
27 Dec 162#48
That's the one part that I'm kicking myself for. Total was £579 so should have chucked in a few filters to push it over £600 but I'm happy with the £150 back

Big thanks to poster, popped back into jessops today after buying the EOS 700d with the double lens kit (paid £489 on xmas eve) refunded today and repurchased for slight increase in price to £499 and bought the OH the lens he wanted for £699 and opted for the £79 accidental damage for 3yrs on camera/lense package total £1277, put it through in eight transactions (7 x £150 and 1 x £227) Amex have sent 8 emails confirming offer redeemed so £400 Amex credit and just registered for canon £40 cash back so £837 altogether. Massive saving and won't have to worry about losing money on camera if he ever wants to upgrade though on other hand I have spent £348 more than intended though he hopefully will be a happy one next time we see a bear. Just needs to learn to use it now!
