If Amex Platinum fee goes up with travel being so restricted, I will be out. Possibly even just to the Amex Everyday and then wind down my use of Amex.

Let’s just say if they do increase again I would cancel it simply because I don’t think it makes sense. Looks like I’ll stay with my CSR

Do you think that Chase will do something similar with Marriott? I’m holding out for a better offer on that card

I would like for someone to explain to me Bonvoy pts have a value of 0.8 – 1 cpp ??
90% of my searches across different properties in different cities give me a 0.5cpp value at best compared to cash price.

Let's be honest, the credits AMEX would add to justify a higher AF would be most likely useless and if they are decent credits, AMEX would still close the gift card loophole for idiots calling about OMG why didn't I receive my credits yet?? It's a never ending cycle…

Bad Idea. Unless they plan to add more perks onto the card.

Can anyone confirm if Amex platinum points get reimbursed for trip cancellation? Miami Beach is on a fuckin curfew because of morons and I’m supposed to be there Friday through the weekend. Need to switch hotel to downtown. Amex on such a back up on phone calls I can’t get through

Damn, I just upgraded to platinum a few weeks ago lol. If they raise the annual fee, they should at the very least make the 10x points on gas and supermarkets a permanent thing.

Went to their online portal but must have gone to a beta site for this new rate hike because it said 795 annual fee with the first year waived if you join before March 31, 2021. I went back just now and it said the site was temporarily down…something is about to happen with that annual fee. I knew I should have screen shot it.

Hey Sebby, thank you for the awesome videos. Quick question, thinking of using some of my points for a room in Vegas, but its not on the Amex website since it's a higher end room. Will the concierge team be able to book this for me? Have you had any experience with this before. Cosmopolitan

Haven’t checked in while. If we have the chase bonvoy card right now can we apply for the Amex one now?

Dunno if you'll see this on an older video like this, but AmEx has reverted back to 3 months to hit minimum spend on welcome bonuses. Not great for me, I was planning to add a Schwab Platinum and maybe a Gold but I won't do either if I can't hit the SUB with my regular spend and 3 months is kinda tight when you don't have rent or tuition to pay.

I honestly don't think AMEX gives a fuck if people drop AMEX Plat. The rumor is they are increasing the PLAT to a more prestige level card and adding another card between Gold and Plat to fill the space. They'll still make their money, just not with the Plat card. EDIT: I think Sebby made a good point about them changing to a lifestyle card. But I don't think they are fully changing to lifestyle. It could be like a hybrid. They'll keep some travel and add lifestyle which would make sense.

Thinking about it, the annual fee increase; makes more sense as a new card. I remember something about a card slotting between the centurion and the plat. I can see something like Titanium or Optio.

If they added diamond status with Hilton I could justify it because I could cancel my aspire card.
