I recently signed up for Select card and received it with a whole lot of stuff in a nice welcome pack. The only strange thing was that there was only a "flyer" for the insurance that referred to the website or said you can call to receive a copy of the booklet. At This stage I didn't think...

A few weeks back I made a booking from MEL to BKK using my award points for the family. The trip is coming up next week and I went into the Qantas FF site to select seats, request special meal and bassinet, etc. Guess what! It didn't let me select seats and after digging around a bit I found...

I found that AMEX offers an "Express Cash" option on their charge card. To my understanding when you sign up for it you give them your bank account details and then you can withdraw cash with your AMEX card which they take out of your account. Has anybody used this facility? Fees? Is it worth...

I am holding a Platinum credit card but I am fed up with the useless service hence want to transfer to the Blue Sky card with no annual fee - I want to keep a AMEX card just in case I ever want to return to them - who knows. Anyway my question is does somebody know if there is a way that I...

I have a Platinum Charge Card and my employer introduced now a Corporate AMEX Card we have to use for all T&E. Got the Corporate Card today and called them to link it to my Membership Rewards program. Long story short is they won't allow you to link a corporate card to a Platinum Charge Card...

I was just browsing around the AMEX website to find some info about the new Platinum Moneyback card and found something interesting I hope somebody here could verify. I have an AMEX Gold Charge Card. One of the reasons I have this card is that I travel a lot and I don't want to be stranded...

I have been offered a Flexible Payment Option (FPO) by AMEX on my Gold Charge Card. This is essentially converts the charge card into a credit card for certain purchases. All purchases over $200 don't have to be paid of at the end of the month but can be paid of via the FPO with interest...

I am trying to book an award trip for the family to Thailand but I am unable to get any flights between 1st of Dec to 31st of Jan'08. I am using of course their website and it just doesn't come up with any available flights. Maybe the experienced users here could help me out with a few...

I had the strangest thing happen to me today. I closed an account on a AMEX Credit Card a year ago and today they send me an account statement with a $80 charge on it for Ascent membership rewards. I have a letter from them a year ago confirming the account was closed! I called them and was...

Got a letter from AMEX today telling me about a $89 p.a. linkage fee for my Corporate Card to membership rewards Ascent. I have not paid any fee for this in the past 5 years. Is AMEX now starting to get cracy and look for new way to squeeze money out of their cardhorlders? Has anybody a...

[MOD EDIT] [/MOD EDIT] I was wondering what the experience of forum members is about AMEX card not being accepted in many places or a surcharge is asked for and in particular if anybody has any insight if AMEX is doing anything about it? Just to make my point this month I spend around...
