Well I weighed up the benefits and think the extra cost over the Gold Card, versus the higher capped earning of $100K for QF points and free Supplementary card for wife as well as another for "other expenses", this will become one of my two "main use cards" (as my Citibank Plat is my other main card).
Logged on last night and went through the process on-line. Very simple except for understanding why the red flags didn't like my formatting of unit numbers (previous home address) or floor addresses (for work). You have to use the / instead of comma's.
I suppose I should have rung up and tried to coerce a call-centre person to give me some additional benefits for upgrading - but then again, would they have spoken English :roll:
Will keep this thread updated with time taken and any contact with Amex. Have warned my relative who doesn't live with me (brother) to expect a call.
I'm expecting to have to supply proof of salary...but that's not a problem. Last years PAYG Statement and a YTD payroll advice should suffice.
