A question to those of you carrying an AmEx platium card (green, gold, or platinum for that matter, since they all have an annual fee).
I've carried the blue card for a couple years now. Last year my cash rebate was over $700 at the end of the year, and I get many of the same benefits provided by the charge cards. AmEx keeps sending pre-approvals, first year's fee waived for their platinum cards and every time I call about my account they give me the sales pitch. I've yet to see the benefit - I'd rather get PAID $700+ to use a card than pay them $150-350. For those carrying one of their cards with the annual fee, what do you get (that you actually use) for the added cost? |

I'm in the same boat you are Dan.
I haven't taken any of the offers because I'd rather get paid money and buy my own plane ticket to where I want instead of dealing with miles, any restrictions, monthly fees, etc. But maybe Sean can help because he's got the Gold Amex... not the black, but the Gold. Haha. |

I have the Gold and the Blue. Had the gold for 4 years before they sent me the offer of the blue, I took it since there's no annual fee, and the annual fee for the gold is only $50 or 60

The Plat card get's you access to a couple Airlines Presidents Club. For a while my Co would pay for a club if you traveled a lot, I got them to put that towards my Plat fee.

I have the blue... its ok but I rarely ever use it...
MC/Visa = easy to use Discover = less easy Amex Blue = more suck for use |
