Any other notable perks?
- sliverstorm 13y agoThe one that always jumps to mind is, on "Small business Saturday", if you register beforehand: - visit a small business on their qualifying list, which is quite long - Spend $10 or more on your AMEX - Get a $10 statement credit I don't know how "notable" that one is, but I always liked it and not everyone knows about it
- nogridbag 13y agoFrom the FAQ: "Can I still register my Card for the American Express $10 Card Member Offer for Small Business Saturday?" "Unfortunately, the enrollment period for the offer has ended." Looks like this the enrollment was only available Nov 24-30.
- sliverstorm 13y agoYes, you do have to enroll every year, but it is easy.
- blntechie 13y agoPurchase Protection. This saved me recently. Broke my new Nexus 5's screen in a matter of a week. Sent to LG for repair and they repaired it for 150$. I filed a purchase protection claim for this 150$ with AmEx and they refunded me the cost in a week. Just emailed them the claim form and receipts. Can't recommend this enough.
- pdubs 13y agoGenerally AMEX is known for better customer service, but YMMV. AMEX is often seen as a good choice for people looking to build credit because they're often willing to give out a 3x credit limit increase (without a hard credit pull) first 90 days after getting a card, and then every 6 months after that (up to a point and assuming you're using the account and in good standing).
