Very good experience all around, I love the benefits and cash back that I get from it and am very pleased with the speed and quality of service as well as the feeling of being part of an international bank. Reviewed on: 26th March 2025

Excellent finance provider

Love the fact that I can get decent cashback on certain purchases (although majority are with luxury companies). I've never used another credit card provider, but AMEX has a great customer service and they've helped me every time I've had an issue. Quick, efficient and nice service. Reviewed on: 8th March 2025

WHEN I NEEDED AMEX TO HELP THEY LET ME DOWN

I have had a Amex card for 30 years. Now I have a platinum business card and a personal card. I left my credit card details with British Airways and BA stole my money. Amex refused to refund me. I wonder if it has anything to do with BA and Amex being partners on the credit card. And the customer service at Amex was rude and dismissive. But they are very good at taking £650 in fees per year.

Poor Service, NOT WORTH THE £650e.

Poor Service, NOT WORTH THE £650e.. Very poor service... Been with them for 8 years paying £650 per year subscription. This Christmas they stitched us, dropped the level of credit and refused all payments despite no defaults or any missed payments. We are now coming away from Amex, the benefits are not really benefits any more ie Airport Lounge access.... You can hardly get is.... Customer service for Platinum card holders is now shockingly poor..... Save your money, use one of the challenger banks such as Allica.... Reviewed on: 1st January 2025
