Altitude Rewards - Amex Devaluation?

[NinnyPoo]

I hold a Westpac Altitude Black Amex (With the Mastercard). I spoke to their call centre and asked re devaluation from April 15, 2019. The call centre staff told me that Altitude rewards would not be changing from April 2019.

My question is - Has anyone else heard this or did I get an uninformed employee.

At present Black for Amex is effectively 1:1 for a range of Airline rewards programs. The program already devalued in November 2018.

If the earn rate continues it makes the card one of the better around. Annual fee is I think $199.
