Such a grate life saver when I have a emergency bill or pay out and very fair to customers, plus builds cash back and builds my credit score Reviewed on: 23rd March 2023

Just excellent

Exceptionally good service, I have never had a credit card before, having the American Express card and paying it off each month has given me an excellent credit rating, and I’m earning air miles. I cannot recommend them enough. Reviewed on: 10th March 2023

Great experience

I was in need for a credit card for a while, I found American Express. It was a very good digital application process on the American Express website. It is a very customer-oriented interface, and the approval process was very smooth. Besides, the mobile app is so good and I keep using it for all my needs about my credit card. Great credit card experience overall. Strongly recommended. Reviewed on: 10th March 2023
