Poor customer service
Multiple issues with this credit card. Every time I tried to call them for advice I felt fobbed off. Even cancelling the card was hard. The only benefit was the Avios points for using it

Use it wisely and you'll benefit
So the price went up last year. But it's still the top credit card for travel points: spend £10k and get a companion voucher and over 40k avios (if you hit the sign up bonus as well). Refer others for another 9k avios per time. And once you've got the ...

Refer others for another 9k avios per time. And once you've got the voucher, downgrade to blue and get a pro-rata refund of the fee. Win win. Just don't borrow money with it. Ever!

Could be easier to maintain Avios bookings
too convoluted with flights not showing up on the Avios side and not registering on the Amex Side

Enticing, but not completely convinced

Read more BA and Amex offer an irresistible offer for sensible lenders to earn Avios points for their everyday purchases. They had a fantastic opening offer, giving me 9,000 points if I spent a certain amount in my first few months -- enough now for a return trip somewhere in Europe. Points come in slowly after this though, and I'm yet to know if the points will be worth something more than a simple jaunt to Europe for one.
App and integration with Apple Pay is better than with Lloyds Bank's cards.

Very good airmiles return
I've used the airmiles many times for Japan flights

great for business travel

Read moreif you want to travel in luxury but can't afford the fare, this card is for you. The 241 voucher allows you to take a companion for free in the same class if you've accrued enough air miles. With a bit of tactical spending, it's not that hard to accrue plenty of miles and it's definitely worth it to sit on a business class flight knowing you've paid the equivalent of an economy ticket

The opportunity to collect AVIOS is not to be missed, and they have regular offers to save money. All in all excellent service and highly recommended.

Everyday buying for airmiles
Great reward scheme with an annual fee to get the companion voucher for additional plane ticket. IF going long haul it's a great saving.

SO easy
Great to have a company that has sorted out their online options. Can get pin reminder, sort out all payments, see my Avios points and get deals in one place. Such a difference compared to other providers I have used. Plus the weekly text message to...
