    Few months of usage of this metal posed no problems so far but I will always present the plastic A.C. card if I sense the eftpos machine may be a bit 'curved' to take the metal version.

    Centurion is now Titanium

    Hi Homer The main card # remains the same with a new expiry. I always get to the CSR in sydney and they seem very capable of handling acct enquires/issues etc and never been diverted to Mumbai for any recalled occassions. Do you always call the same 1800 #? And they actually called you...

    If you decide not to activate the metal card and Amex let u keep custody of the metal card it will be a good letter opener.........:mrgreen:

    Amex to launch Centurion card

    Hi all I reckon amex Aus doesnt not take into account of a straight minimum spend as a prime entry point with regards to the centurion offer to existing plat charge card members as per their US counterpart(USD 250,000) however the total charges must at least be a sizable one i.e. somewhat from...
