Congrats Dogman, it's a great card. You'll find every aspect of the platinum card top notch from the UC tone of their advertisements and customer service dept. to the ability to get last min. reservations to fine resturants. Even mundate purchases will sometimes feel special. Upgrades at the fine hotels/resorts are great too.
Dog, Did you talk to them today? Or before the 20th? If you talked to them any day after the 20th, then don't expect a letter of confirmation for about 1-2 weeks and don't expect your card until 6/27. Now go ahead and make room in your wallet! Save that front spot! ROFLOL!
IF THEY ARE HURTIN' FOR MONEY...WHY WON'T THEY INCREASE MY LIMIT AFTER 2.5...ALMOST 3 YEARS NOW????????????
Re: AMEX Platinum Card - For real?! AAARrrrfff - thx all - I am thrilled. aaarrrrfffff - scratch - pant - circle - aroooo! MP$40 - the guy said 5 days and he told me to keep using the Green until the Platinum arrived. I guess we'll see... I don't know if this matters but my Green Card is valid from 6/01 to 07/04. (I got in B4 the renewal fee again..?) GEORGE - I can hardly wait to pay $395 so I can "pay in full..." I will say that since I have had AMEX over the last 2 years, I have not really paid any interest to the Visa or Mastercard Accts - and have not added new balances or ever gone over a low credit limit. It has served me well... THX ALL! aarrffff - dogman
Re: AMEX Platinum Card - For real?! Hey just curious about the AMEX Sign & Travel program. What apr do they charge to be able to trasfer charges into that account to be able to pay over time??? It doesn't say anywhere on their web site. I'm just curious, that's all. I know it doesn't come with my account.
Re: AMEX Platinum Card - For real?! I pay MOST of my credit cards in full...it's just that if you NEEDED TO, OR WANTED TO...you CAN'T pay min payments, and have to pay $395 for the PRIVILEGE... 2.5 years I didn't pay any annual fee or interest on my AMEX BLUE...
Re: AMEX Platinum Card - For real?! Sign and travel rate isn't very competitive. Mine is prime+7.9% I think... as for the annual fee, when I upgraded from gold to platinum, they actually credited my account the annual fee (pro-rated), even did that for the membership rewards fee! You actually pay $95 a yr for a green card, if you include the $40 membership rewards annual fee. Platinum card members get the MR fee waived... You could have requested that your card be sent Airborne express, next day delivery. Then you wouldn't have to wait 5 days... I've had that done for all card replacements, even when I had a AU added, the next day--card was at my door.
SAY WHAT? ....AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM? This is freakin' awesome!! If anyone deserves this card it's the American Express spokesman (you).....Aaaarrfff!! You have been so loyal and sent them so many customers, they ought to pay YOU to take the card!!! Way to go Dog. :-D
Congrats Dogman !!!!! I had the Amex Plat card back in 1996 It is a very nice looking card. Enjoy your new card Dogman.
