    Metal Platinum card

    Got mine today. It looks exactly the same as the pics of the US version except it has the contactless icon front and back. The card is actually two pieces stuck together, the front is a heavy thicker metal and the back is thinner metal or maybe plastic, probably to support contactless.

    Amex Rental Car Insurance

    You are probably right but it's very unclear and poorly written compared to what's laid out in the Explorer insurance. It uses the term "Covered rental trip" rather than "covered trip" which to me leaves it very open. It also defines the term "Geographical Scope" but never uses it outlining the...

    Amex Rental Car Insurance

    Just noticed something annoying with the Platinum Charge Card Insurance. It doesn't cover Rental Car Insurance (Loss Damage Waiver) unless the rental takes place in your country of residence. My Amex Explorer Black however covers me around the world! Bit disappointing as the fee for the...

They also mentioned to...

    Suites savers now available

    Thanks cove it will be nice to get a quick trip in before everything changes! From your response does this mean SQ will let you confirm a standard award while having a waitlisted saver award on the same flight? All flights have full availability in first so I'm quietly confident it will clear...

    The Explorer Credit Card (New AMEX Card!)
