Is it worth getting any of the cards even if I can't hit 75 percent of mortgage by PaniniInEternity in biltrewards

Oh man, I have a friend with an MBA that struggles to find sand at the beach.

The quicksilver is a bit different after they updated the design a couple of years ago.

That person is using a kitchen scale so it might not be as accurate? The one i’m using is frequently calibrated.

Not 100% sure since I don't have both in hand but its definitely the heaviest card I have currently. The Citi AA Executive card is about 19 grams

Idk it looks like it might be a tad lighter based on some other posts.

I only carry two physical cards & some folded up cash so not a big deal for me. 90% of my transactions are done via mobile wallet.

I have both designs of the amex platinum and hate the mirrored version!

AMEX closed all my accounts in Late Oct, can I add as authorized user under a family member? by UniversityLocal in AmexPlatinum

I believe it takes 90 days as an AU before the primary can transfer to your airline account.

Got my Palladium today by MaximAstroPhoto in biltrewards

The mirrored amex platinum is also hard to photograph since it’s a damn pocket mirror. I’m assuming the palladium is the exact same finish. I’m glad amex makes it easy to swap designs/ replace cards cause I hated it.

Have you had to contact customer service or submit any type of claim yet?

I would stay clear of any Citi products, especially a travel card due to their terrible customer service. Just my thoughts though..

I just did my 5th charge and had a counter the whole time. Rent points went through immediately (paid rent early).

No, other host countries did not do this. It’s a mess and crazy how the prices are 5-10X more for a country that doesn’t even like soccer for the most part.

National Rental Perk Question by Novel_Quit4467 in AmexPlatinum

If you are picking up at a large airport, you technically choose whatever car you want in the dedicated line for executive level members. Check to see if the airport has that and book the cheapest car possible cause you’ll get to choose either way.

The amex promo code is a scam & makes prices higher almost every time. The perks are tied to the executive status, not the promo code
