    Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" - bonus points given thread.

    That's correct, nothing additional from that. I am also exceedingly pleasant on these types of calls - don't know if that makes a difference, but it can't hurt! In other news I also found out you can simply just ask them to extend all your travel credits if they haven't already automatically...

    Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" - bonus points given thread.

    So another interesting experience I had - I decided to call Amex via the number on the back of my card. Got put through to Manila. Had a chat to the agent about my annual fee that just got posted, and whether she coudl waive any of the fees. She went away, then came back a few mins later and...

    Amex "I'm going to cancel my card" - bonus points given thread.

    I tend to disagree here, I've tried to cancel my Westpac black amex twice now, first time they threw 100k points at me to not cancel it, the second time after me saying "well I guess there are no offers" the cusrep said she'd give me 50k points to keep it. Quite a nice little racket haha, and...
