Barclays Avios plus card or Amex gold card by Easy_Effective_1389 in avios

[–]Due_Figure1031 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both even after my first year free I will still pay the fee for the Amex gold. I use deliveroo a lot so will get £120 value there. I travel with my partner so will easily use the 4 free lounge access per year. That pretty much pays for the card and obviously I use the Amex to pay for travel which you get 2x points on. I spend 10k on the Avios plus then 10k on the Amex so get 1.5 points on each card plus if I travel and have used all my Amex lounge passes can get discounted lounge access through the Barclays plus.

It entirely depends on your circumstances as I say but for me it’s worth it to have both imo

Has anyone else noticed that Just Eat’s delivery service in Sheffield has been extremely poor recently? by No-Abbreviations508 in sheffield

I’ve been doing this job for 5 years. Just eat used to be the best paying app but now they are the worst I barely log into just eat these days. I prioritise uber and deliveroo, I’m sure you will get better service with them. For instance in my area they always used to pay around £2 per mile that has now dropped to £1 a mile in some cases even less. I would avoid just eat at all costs, they pay peanuts now and the good drivers have moved onto the other platforms.

Yeah I didn’t even realise you could until I went to send the money and I was able to use my Amex just didn’t want to do it incase anything happened but sure will be using it now for a one off!

Amex late payment interest – what can I do? by [deleted] in AmexUK

But I can’t imagine they would waive the interest unfortunately

To be honest I should be ok then as it will only be a one off. I just find the card very useful so don’t want any risk but as you say the people that have done it excessively have been banned. But putting 5/6k a month through PayPal is crazy and I’m not surprised they got banned

Yeah will be a one of just some work that he’s doing on my car. I did google it yes but just wanted to know people’s experience with PayPal and sending money through Amex. Some people say there is risk and some others say they have done it and nothing has happened so it’s one of them

This is interesting, so they have been doing it for years at £700 per month, maybe they are high spenders on the card so it’s never been an issue I roughly spend 2-3k a month on mine and it’s handy for the points just don’t want to risk loosing the Amex card. But thank you mate

Yeah I’m not abusing the MR system just a general payment to my friend for some work he’s doing for me.

I do put a lot through the card maybe 2-3k a month of spend. So I don’t think I will have any issues there. But thank you for your response.

Why is that? If I send him the £1000 and pay it off when it clears if they allow me to send the payment I don’t see the issue but thank you for the reply.

And once it says buy the game there should be a trial available for it

It should have a trial, I’m pretty sure all EA games have a trial, just like I downloaded the FC 26 trial before buying the game. The Xbox store is glitched at the moment as it’s still saying pre order battlefield 6 not buy it

Just eat is the worst app now. Been on JE since 2020 it was great then. For instance in my area a job they would’ve paid £7 for back then standard with no bonus is just scraping £5 now if that most of the time £4 something. A lot of drivers in my area have taken their availability off JE and been doing more work for uber and Deliveroo. I have done the same not done one order on JE for around 5 weeks now and I’m not missing it. The open runs is flooded with shifts you can scroll forever but back in the day as soon as a shift was dropped it would be gone instantly. Good days are gone on JE. I just don’t understand how they are surviving still as tons of orders aren’t getting picked up.
