Great cashback rewards but AMEX is still not accepted in a lot of places and contactless seems hit and miss compared to Mastercard or Visa. Good customer service.

American Express offer good rewards including cashback and nectar points. However, not widely accepted, especially in smaller outlets and independents.

OK so you can't use it everywhere but the Platinum Everyday Cashback card gives you a very tasty 5% return with a maximum payback of £100.

I like American Express, easy to use mobile phone app to keep a look out on your balances aswell as having shop small events where you get £5 cashback when you spend £10 is a good deal, they also offer you good cashback to begin with for 3 months. When ever you phone customer services they are also very quick to answer the phone and always polite.

Useful way to gain extra nectar points. Only downside being that no everywhere takes AMEX

I took up a BA Amex card two years ago, and the service is great. The app makes paying the bill so easy. The customer service call team are always helpful, efficient and go out of their way to help. For example, I called from New York to say I'll be abroad and I'd like to use my card - the agent asked if I had any further travel, and on the same call updated my card for the next three foreign trips. I used my companion voucher and we flew first class with BA to Barbados for less than £500 return. Now that's a perk of spending on a credit card

I have an airmails card with AMEX - and the annual fee is quite high - but I do renew each year because the miles and benefits are worth it. I always have good experiences when I contact the company and you do get the feeling they are going the extra mile
