trying to buy laptop but dell keeps canceling my orders.
Same thing, it’s out of hand
I bought a computer a couple weeks ago. Dell says delivery date is dec 28. They had put a hold on my Amex, but released it. I guess they will charge when they ship. Wondering if they ship at end of year, and the charge posts after Jan 1, do I lose out on this year’s $200?
Yes
Yes and no.
Same thing happened to me for the 2021 year. Ordered on the 15th, but, the order didn’t ship till Jan 30th. Called amex and they had to physically give me the credit.
So, yes you can get it, just have to “prove” that the delay was from Dell and not you.
Amex saw the transaction that showed the hold on the card for my purchase and based off of that, gave me the credit.
Xbox GCs no longer work (for me). Dell rep told me they are no longer selling them (cannot really trust a Dell rep).
what doesn’t work? They cancel the order?
Yes they keep cancelling them.
Use an employee card (new number), ‘new’ email, and a different billing address. The only thing that needs to be the same is the zip code. Make sure to clear all cookes. Also use a VPN to change your IP address.
If using the employee card will i still get the 10% ?
Yes
No
Can you please expand on this on how we can get 10% off?
How quickly can I get a employee card?
Ordered an Ultimate Ears Megaboom 3. Pretty decent Bluetooth speaker.
why only listing the $20 xbox gift card not the 50 or 100?
If my billing cycle ended for the ninth already can I still order as long as I am charged by 12/31?
How do I use the 100 airline credit for united on the amex gold card? Can I purchase a 100$ credit ?
Can I do a phone transaction?
Thanks for the reminder to use the credit and for the idea of using it for XBOX gift cards. They’re good for gifts, and also, according the Dell website, “This digital gift code is good for purchases at Microsoft Store online, on Windows, and on Xbox. ” Oh and for that 10% off code, as well.
Dan, I just signed up for the AMEX Business Platinum card. Does it make sense to also sign up for the personal one??
Sure!
The Bose QC has a Jan 12 delivery date (NYC Metro) and according to Dell it wont ship earlier
I had the same thing. It shipped out the same day that I ordered it.
I ordered the Bose qc45 estimated deliver date Jan 12. You think there is any chance it’ll post and ship before then?
Yes.
I hope. They put the order on hold so I’m waiting for the shipment email
Good luck and keep us posted!
My order just shipped!!! That means it’ll post before new years
Enjoy!
Do you think a jan 4th delivery will ship out and post by dec 31st?
I had a Jan 4 delivery which is now scheduled for Dec 30
my cc is in my office. is there way to make this happen tonight? too lazy to call amex tonight
when splitting charges into 3, can you decide how much to charge each individual card?
Obviously
Does expedited shipping speed up the fulfillment process, or will standard shipping be fulfilled in the same time frame?
If i buy multiple items which add up to $200, will i get the credit?
Yes, no need to spend $200 to get credit.
Thanks,
Purchased a $1,600 computer and 2 $200 screens today.
Used code DELL200 for $200 off $1600+, my amex business marriott card and my wife’s business marriott card each had $200 back for $800 spend, and used my business platinum for $200.
$2,000 product for $1,200
@ Dan —-
you wrote above that “you’ll want to order items that will ship by 12/31! If item item ships after your credit expires you will lose your credit.”
I am under the impression that the charge has to post by 12/31, not just ship by 12/31 to get the 2021 $200 credit. Am i mistaken?
Thank you
How do I see the shipping date when ordering?
best guess anything that will ship ontime if I order right now?
I got a few of the xbox digital gift cards. Is there a way to sell them?
Charged 12/31 got credit 01/02 is it for 2021 or for 2022?
If the post date was 12/31, then it’s 2021 credit.
Any good printers?
Why last chance isn’t last day 6/30?
Some items can take a week or 2 to ship, has to ship by 6/30.
How can i tell which will take that long to ship?
The product page should have an estimate.
I got an Arctic Nova Pro headset
@DAN i saw some scratch and dent discounted laptops by dell outlet would that trigger the crredit? like this one: https://outlet.us.dell.com/ARBOnlineSales/Online/SecondaryInventorySearch.aspx?c=us&cs=22&l=en&s=dfh&sign=PXhcOSHtr1T4IOw%2fPR7UdULzZ5qF4F0zbUl4HvGwyXj1cT58Jd%2f1dyJ1c1OjsvI9TELs4gI6B3nOSrsLLRBJVHwiBY7W4VCtOxp8QKJWmESdfE5hA1wbDE7AZ26%2fqkfc38a41dZVq2Ty6RLY8Idn%2bQDSnVNXSRzID5ubjZpYJG3Fhcfp7GJxD1kP7UidpzSHuUUJvvHAJY0%3d
thanks again dan!
Be aware that Dell do price match over live chat. So for this like Google Home or Ring you can match if it goes on sale elsewhere like Target.
Will i get the credit if i buy refurbished from https://outlet.us.dell.com/
Just bought a refurbished laptop for $199. with half decent specs. Basically free with my Amex Platinum. Latitude 7280. (dellrefurbished.com)
Did you actually get the $200 credit on this purchase from dellrefurbished.com? I assume you meant the Amex *Business* Platinum…
The ship date or deliver date has to be before june 30th? also will the dell refurbished website work for this as well?
If I ordered an item from Dell today (6-29-22) and it ship tomorrow (6-30 with an expected delivery by 7-1), am I probably too late for the benefit for first half year?
whens the latest date of the year to do it
Depends when the item ships. Has to ship by 12/31.
omg i gotta figure out what to get how long does it usually take to ship? what would you say is the latest i should put my order through
Every item page says its estimated ship date.
Dan, you write “Eligible Products”. I ordered a bunch of ink for my computer. How do i know if its eligible for this offer? My stuff shipped a yesterday, i see a pending charge on amex, but no credit.
Credit can take a week or 2. You should get it.
Is Dell giftcard valid purchase for $200 credit
No.
Where can I see how much credit I already received
https://www.dansdeals.com/credit-cards/check-updated-amex-platinum-benefits-tracker-make-sure-used-expiring-credits-triple-dip-new-cards/
I ordered a canon eco tank printer. Said it’s gonna ship by the 28th but it’s almost here already! Was $195 including ny tax.
Does it help to pay for expedited shipping to make sure it goes through before year-end? I know what matters is when it SHIPS, not the delivery date. Does expedited shipping make it ship sooner, or just arrive sooner?
Also, I can only see DELIVERY dates for each item, not ship dates. My item says delivery date of Jan. 3 with express shipping, which I assume would mean it would ship before the New Year (since Jan. 1 and Jan. 2 are not business days). The question is if I need to pay for expedited shipping or not- regular shipping says delivery by Jan. 9 but maybe it would still ship at the same time as the expedited, just take longer to actually arrive.
dell just stopped selling xbox live gc .
what do you mean by eligible? i have the card i want to use this now, i understand it has to be an item that is in stock and ready to ship because it is cutting it close to 2023. Are any items not “eligible”?
Dell gift cards.
Outlet items won’t work for the 10-20% off.
Outlet items are items with big discounts?
No. They’re items from the outlet store site.
Last chance meaning I need to spend $200 on my platinum business card tonight or I will lose it?
It has to ship before June 30th.
Thanks!
What item can I buy that will net me at least 50% of the credit ?
The Xbox gift cards was a good deal but it’s out of stock ?
Their 27″ 4k monitors are pretty nice.
Tip: Don’t charge to multiple Credit Cards and don’t order more than one item per order.
Dell is incompetent, will often get an authorization on CC but won’t put charge through, and will then send you an invoice and try to collect months later.
Where can I see when the item will ship?
Currently stackable with 10% back offer.
bought power bank and laptop case
If I return an Item, will Amex remove the credit?
If I have the “$40 off $200” offer, do I have to spend $240+ to benefit from both the credit and offer, or will $200 spend trigger both, making me $40?
I have never (or at least not in recent memory) seen the $40 off $200″ offer on my Biz Plat. The former only shows up on my Consumer Plat.
You are correct. The offer was on my other amex card.
But I did have the 10% offer.
Does that mean I need to spend $220?
Or if i spend $200 will I make $20 profit?
If I used PayPal did I just lose the credit?
True story!
how long does credit post on the card? bought couple weeks ago, still waiting credit.
Did you register for it?
Did they charge your card and ship it?
yes.
They changed and i got bose earbuds.
it posted just few days last year.
Been a few days for me.
Contact AMEX.
Dell is the worst… pushed off my shipping date twice already and now most likely I’m going to lose out on my $200 credit.
Dell keeps postponing my ship date and therefore I am about to lose out on my credits.
Can I purchase digital products with instant download to use the credits immediately?
Such as:
https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/download-xbox-microsoft-flight-simulator-40th-anniversary-premium-deluxe-edition-xbox-one-digital-code/apd/ac332688/gaming-gaming-accessories
You can try ordering Xbox Live $75 Digital Gift Cards, as those should process still today.
I have been looking for them for almost two hours, I can’t find them. That has been always my back up until now. Any link(s)?
Dell rep is saying they can no longer take 3 payment methods
Still doable online.
you can only split it to 2 cards not 3
Incorrect.
Just tried online and it doesn’t permit more than two payment methods
Just applied for business platinum but cards delivery date is only 12/26 due to the holidays will it still be possible to take advantage of this offer or is there any way to get a instant csrd number until physical card arrives?
On your approval email you should have a link for a temporary card num..
Remember to enroll on your Amex profile to the dell offer..
Only link in my approval email was to “set up account online” an I did not see an option to get a temporary card number. Is there a way to get one now? Or do I just wait till my card arrives and hope I can still process the order then and still get the credit to apply.
Sign up here for a %10 coupon, it will arrive whiten 24h.
As Dan learned us, adding a period should work (Example if your email address is Test@gmail you can do Te.st@gmail)
If I apply for the 0% dell business credit and I pay now $200 and the other half after Jan will I get both credits? It’s charged under dell financial services.
what is the best dell I7 laptop of 2023 or is it worth waiting for the XPS model of 2024
I tried twice to place orders. Got email confirmation and within one hour order was canceled, no reason given.
Anyone know why?
We’re you ordering for a buying group with the shipping address in Deleware?
Same
Keeps getting cancelled
JJ, is the power bank compatible w XPS13? Your old favorite one (silver) seemed more compatible in regards to small laptops w usb c
Bose earbud update.
I spoke with Dell this morning and asked why my Bose earbuds kept getting canceled, they told me that it was Bose that was doing the cancelation and not Dell. They explained that even though it shows on the Dell website Bose is back ordered and don’t have a production or ship date. She was very helpful and replaced the order with the smoke white ones (they were $20 more) so now I have a confirmation and they should be delivered before Jan 1.
I hope this helps anyone looking to order them.
you can get dell to price match best buy on the xbox to 349.99
Dell is insane with the order cancelation you have to call 8663834713 and speak with these animals they could verify your account and make that future orders will go through
My Dell order was showing delivery date 12/30 – now i got an email that they delayed delivery to 1/17. Will Amex honor the Credit?
No, order something else quickly.
anyway to make purchase now
Opened amex Plat last Dec, have welcome points in account . Opened Plat biz so can keep 2 welcome points, thinking to cancel first card I Jan. Will amex take away all welcome points ?
Need to move elsewhere?
will there be any dell deals or codes before the next amex credit expires?
does amex business gold also have the benefit?
No, we would have said that if it did. 😉
Can you buy gift cards on dell?
Not for this credit.
If I’m spending 1,000 Can you split up an order on 2 different credit cards? Minimal amount to get the 200 back and than use another cc for the balance?
“Dell allows you to split a charge among 3 credit cards at checkout. If you have multiple Business Platinum cards that means you can get a $200 credit back on each one by splitting the charge among multiple cards.”
Due to security. It’s now down to 2 cards per transaction
Just tested. That’s incorrect.
I was using a link to a quote and it limits me to 2 cards.
I see that you are correct
Do they still send the 10% coupon code for signing up for email? I did not get them (used Gmail.dot alias.
Looking to buy a laptop….anyone have experience buying a device before 7/1 and then buying the extended warranty after 7/1 to maximize?
Dan: Is the Targus Laptop Power Bank better for an XPS laptop (17 inch) than the INIU 140W 27000mAh High Capacity Laptop Power Bank?
Thanks for the reminder! No way I would have remembered.
Logitech Master Mouse is the best thing ever: Logitech MX Master 3S Performance Wireless Mouse: $99.99. Logitech MX Keys S Combo: $199.99
Can you please elaborate? What’s the meila over any mouse? Also, what’s the diff between the 3s, and the s?
@dan you recommend the zerox laser printer over the similar canon same price?
@Dan, how do I use that power pack for my laptop? It doesn’t have the correct plug or outlet for a laptop?
any one got reimbursed for the out of warranty repair service?
Should work.
If I order something for July 2 delivery will it trigger the credit? Or will it ship to late? Does it only need to ship by the 30 th or arrive?
Ship by.
I just placed an order, I know I know, very late! But I noticed that Dell charged my cards immediately. At least they look like charges.
(Also, note for Dan, did you know that none of the links to products in your post work in Safari on Mac.)
does the order need to be delivered before the 1st of July or placed before the 1st of July?
Any last day suggestions?
Too late I think , unless you’re buying software.
Does the power bank work with HP laptops?
It works with anything that takes a USB-C
Can I use Dell financing to pay the rest of my order using Jan to July $200 credit?
Does anyone have experience with that?
Is there a functional difference between the two targus power packs? Any reason why I care for the 140W over the 100W?
Depending on what power requirements your laptop needs.
which toner do you buy?
is the dell only available on the business card or also on the personal platinum?
Placed in order on dell.com on 12/23, expected delivery 1/2, but it hasn’t shipped yet and the charge hasn’t posted. Should I buy a digital item today (12/31) to make sure I get the $200 credit for the second half of 2024?
If I use the $200 before the end of June, will there be the $150 to use for calendar year 2025, or does the $150 start in 2026?
You can get both in 2025.
Used my $200 ABP end of April.for a sweet stack. I replaced an XPS13 from 2018 (Costco) with a XPS13 running the new multi-core Snapdragon X chip

The XPS is the.flagship model – did but several Inspirons during C19 with ABP and one in December for just over $200 – we will send it to a relative overaeas.
I need agood desktop computer. Any suggestions?
Is there any clarity how the transition from the old every-6-months credit to new annual credit will work in 2025? Specifically, if I’ve already used the $200 credit for purchases for the Jan-June 2025 period, will I get any further credit ($150) for purchases for the July-Dec 2025 period? Or will the new annual $150 credit only apply in calendar 2026?
yes. You’ll get another $150 credit for between Jul 2025 and Jan 2026
Even if u used the $200 credit between Jan 2025 and Jul 2025
I ordered a camera, received $200 amex credit, but I had to return it, once they credit back for the return will I lose my amex credit? and if yes, should I purchase something quickly today (if I lose the first amex credit will I get it again)?
Dell keeps cancelling my orders. Can we do a class action against Amex for a partial refund of annual fee?
I am ok with paying the $695 with expectation that I could spend $5000 and get $1k back. But if they keep cancelling my orders, I can’t . Therefore, Amex shouldn’t be allowed to advertise it.
If i order now but ships tomorrow will i be credited?
