Just as an FYI - they've now scrapped the holding pen for transit customers as part of a wider easing of covid measures. Seems were a month or two behind Aus in terms of omicron surge so the govt is just beginning to roll things back...

Aussie in Singapore here! Cruises have had a bad time with outbreaks here - and they have had a tendency to shut entire ships down (although the more recent relaxations would have me believing you'd just get thrown in the hold) Current restrictions here are still very vigilant - so 5pax...

I can confirm it does take a while for the actual letter to come in...

I'm happy to be corrected by the brainstrust here (Haven't been in Aus for like 3 years now haha) Whenever I deal with Amex (and this is only my plat charge) - they can instantly reinstate the charge card, but IIRC there's some laws around following through for credit cards. Actually now that...

They can for charge cards. Credit cards fairly certain they can't. As well as partner cards (not sure if the DJs is a partner card) 1645062650 They can for charge cards. Credit cards fairly certain they can't. As well as partner cards (not sure if the DJs is a partner card)

Flying back home to visit family for first time in 3yrs in SQ J. One thing covid was good for, banking krisflyer miles. First time that the missus is flying business too! 🥳

Haha yes I'm sure the restaurant would oblige a bit of a faff with paying... :)

Hi - I believe there is a 'window' for credits that this can apply to - they saw that my credits all expire in 2022 and were like "oh you managed to use them" I wnat to say it's from now till end of 2021.. but don't quote me. She was more than happy to do anything in 2021 I believe..?

Haven't got an offer in ages on the charge due to my... Overseas status but just got a food one for 300$ back at a few fancy restaurants. Going to remotely shout my mum dinner via my brother haha - appears to be a platinum credit.

Fyi for those of you with charge cards. If you call the platinum hotline and speak to them about it. They should be able to convert it to statement credits. Just got off the phone then. (Sadly I did manage to use mine haha)

Hello friends so a bit of an update from my conversation with a lovely person on the amex platinum hotline. So it turns out yes, if you hold a charge card like me (I was calling up coz my annual fee just got charged haha) - if you request a cancellation, that's their unlock to "see if there are...

Haha! Well shows how long since it's been me logging into the web portal!!!

Just logged into my account and got an ad for Chris Hemsworth's new training program - apparently a benefit for amex members (free 12m trial, 129.95) Not sure if this is part of this whole new deal?

Chatting to Amex chat atm - they said quote: " We continually review the products and benefits we offer our Card Members. As a result of this, we have decided to exit the relationship and will continue to look for ways that we can deliver value. We will continue to review the partnerships and...

This is what i don't get too - why would you stagger the reveal like this, only to drive a lot of nervousness and consternation - and potentially people pulling the plug?

It better not be this 😢

Tbh they all look at the same system - it seems that it is highly dependent on your individual situation more than anything else

Just called our friends at Amex because the $195 for the edge card came in due. Wasn't offered anything (as I had just been offered a bunch to 'keep' it a few months back) so closed it to save my $195 - as travel credit and the other perks aren't super worth it for me living in Singapore!

Awesome man! Good to hear! Also amusingly - that 'one only valued customer' is on my account at least 3 times haha 🤣🤣🤣

Ya from my understanding (and thanks DC3 - magic Box is catching on!) - the cancellation is one of those they trigger it but it goes back immediately. You'll have to quadruple check if you only have one card tho (I have multiple cards - so am a lot more cavalier about these things) Also, it...
