I enjoy some cashback but it's really hit or miss whether places will accept an Amex card.

The Amex Platinum card is a great card with great benefits
Smart Money People
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.

The procedure was very straight forward, I made the enquiry for what I wanted and the reply came back straightaway.

My Amex card gives me 1% cashback on all of my spending on the card. So the more I spend, the more I save. It doesn't add up to much over the course of a month but every little helps

Tried to cancel a card, but as I no longer have the card...was told I had to write in. When asked if I could cancel via a secure message (I still have access to my online account), I was told that wasn't possible...tried it anyway, and my request has been accepted. Asking me to write in to cancel is unacceptable in this day and age.

The website is easy to use, their text updates are very helpful, and the reward for airmiles is great.

I have used Amex Credit Cards sparingly in the past, such as the Nectar Card when I shopped more for the points. They work well with promotions like these, but the only problem experienced is a lot of the smaller traders still do not accept them due to the excessive charges. However the rewards have added up nicely and use where ever accept them! The Family and I are hoping to use the saved Avios Points towards our dream Holiday in Brazil. We have about half the flight already paid for! Well worth using for the great rewards programs.
