What people get wrong
- Enrollment comes first. Two benefits need a one-time enrollment. Spend before you enroll and nothing posts, because American Express will not apply a credit retroactively.
- Nothing rolls over. Whatever is unused when a period ends is gone, so a monthly credit missed in March can't be used in April.
