If you have not heard on the news yet, AMEX is making some big changes.

Read for yourself! All I know if my gold card gets anymore expensive or the blue card becomes less appealing, I will drop both of them.

It does say, “CREDIT CARDS”. Not “CHARGE CARDS”.

If you wanted to be technical. I am waiting for MOUSE as well.

I’m not very concerned… I’ve got Amex Blue, which doesn’t get any double rewards, and don’t have any Amex charge cards with annual fees.

I already know about it

It is not all AMEX cards

You will be notified

I HAVE BACK-UP CARDS

“IF” IT AFFECTS ONE OF MY CARDS I WILL JUST DO A 2 into 1 AND CLOSE ONE

I have seen a partial list on another board

(CALL AND ASK IF YOUR CARDS ARE ON THE LIST)

DELTA was not on the partial list I saw

You can always trade for a different AMEX card

Heard about this too. Was pretty surprised. Either they are losing money or just wanting to make more money. I’m guessing it’s the later.
