How do you do the transfers now? What other option we can use US AMEX ?
Wise ask me to provide TAX notice but I’m not sure now they will let me do the transfers.

I just transfer funds into my HSBC US account via Revolut.

I have created account with Revolut but not sure I can setup direct debit with that as Revolut account doesn't have routing number, have anyone use Revolut for US Amex payments?
can I use BIC/Swift number as routing number?

Nope. That is for international transfers. I don’t believe it works as a ACH/wire routing number

I usually use Revolut for international money transfers (say from $A to $US for Amex payments. I don’t pay directly into my Amex Account but into HSBC using its account and souring number and then do a payment from Amex funded from HSBC.
