    Amex Centurion Card eligibility in Australia

    No I haven't tried. I will be taking it to Europe. Might try in Singapore first. I like the idea of not having to take a wallet with me. I hate using tap and pay on my phone. Hahah seems you are far away from the airport? We are southeast melb. Yep - mine was similar to this, was just kind of...

    Amex Centurion Card eligibility in Australia

    My experience has been keeping my RM doing all the work for hotels etc, then in the lead up to everything being finalised he asks what time works for us to be picked up from home.

    Amex Centurion Card eligibility in Australia

    I could be wrong, but I thought that was changed with the new product (increase to AF etc) to be any international ticket regardless of class. Not sure, I have heard Singapore Air do it. Wow, I have to be honest if I was a first time member (which I am), I cannot stand dealing with multiple...

    Amex Centurion Card eligibility in Australia

    It depends on the property. The FHR property will state on Amex travel portal to some effect of: "This property has elevated Centurion benefits when booking through your RM"

    Amex Centurion Card eligibility in Australia

    Offically: If you book an international return trip you receive: Luxury transfer to the airport, destination airport to hotel and airport to home. I have received this even without booking the return trip (used an awards redemption booking direct with the airline)

    Amex Centurion Card eligibility in Australia

    My invitation came at the perfect time for me to test it out to see if it is worth it. I've been plat charge since 18 and Cent since 21. I do truly believe the Plat Charge is exceptional value if you travel. However, the Centurion has its perks. The insurance is second to none. See above...

    Amex International Transaction Fees - Worth it for insurance cover?

    It'll come down to what is important to you. My mentality has been convenience plus experience. The convenience of not having to worry about any insurance, making sure I've got the policies etc etc. Not to mention the time I have to invest in finding the "right" policy for the price. My...

    How does spending power work?

    Yeh nothing has ever been reported for AU cards. Tbh I'd forgotten about it. I did it tonight. 180k approved. 100k approved. Tried 80k approval, told me I've been partially approved for something nominal like $43,600 lol. It mentions to do with fraud also. I'd say that works for both sides...

    How does spending power work?

    The more you use it the less it generally approves. All algorithms More prevalent in the US from my understanding (can trigger account reviews). However never seen this with an AU acc.

    Centurion annual fee increase from 5K to 6.5K

    I asked for an escalation and they refused to do so. That's as hard as I pushed. Reason for no escalation was due to "it being done before and declined", even though I said I know of other members I know personally who have had theirs waived. With that spend I'd say go for it.

    I was unsuccessful earlier this year. Is it still 5k? Or did they up it to 6.5k

    New Amex Centurion Cards

    Honestly, the Amex platinum card is better quality than the Centurion. I thought I was imagining it until my wife said the same thing and she couldn't care less, but noticed after a few days. Disappointing.
