So just an update, we finally received the wife's bonvoy brilliant amex! So from where I left off, I had to call amex again till I got someone who was willing to give me my tracking number. With that in hand I was ready to chat to MyUS to look for the missing package. Unsurprisingly amex had left out the suite number. Now the next part was a bit different, it was in my suite but under review, and when I asked to expedite it they wanted to know who the seller is and their address. They wouldn't budge without knowing the address of the seller. After a bit a back and forth trying to explain that it is a credit card and its from AMEX, I noticed that one of the photos supplied by myus had a return address for amex (1801 NW 66TH Ave Ste 103. Plantation, FL, 33313 for anyone interested). I gave them that and it worked, card is now ready to send! Happy as Larry, chose the fastest FEDEX delivery method and paid extra for urgent handling cos I wanted to have the card asap. Who would of thought that the US would be hit with huge snow storms, pretty much grinding the fedex Memphis hub to a halt... so I was to wait another week, just watching if everyday if my package had moved. Finally the day before yesterday I see it in Honolulu, then yesterday in Sydney, and this morning on board for delivery today!
Got the card in my hands now, and it looks and feels really good. The material it is made of feels far more superior than the Aspire counterpart. Can't wait to start using it!
