Yes, finally something I actually pay for
i hope everyone here knows of the 2 loopholes on this...

1 is United travel bank
2 is Jet blue flights between a certain amount. I believe $84-132. ANd then you can cancel and get that money put into your jet blue travel bank.

Ignorant...

For many these benefits don't add up, and they shouldn't hold this card. For many they do...

$200 Uber/Uber eats
$200 airline incidental(multiple loopholes to get full value on this, even if you travel just a few times a year)
$240 this credit. It's not the greatest but many can get full value.
$200 hotel credit(this is probably the most useless one for a few good reasons so will leave this out of final tabulation)
$179 clear credit(for those of us that have airports that have clear this is solid. I'm in nyc and it saves me literally an hour min at any given tsa line)
$100 saks 5th (they have things that sell for $50 bucks that you can easily cash in on. I don't buy clothes every other week, i literally just got a set of 12 kielbasas from there for $50 bucks, will do again in summer for bbq)
$300 equinox credit. Not for everyone, and I don't use it, but many will utilize it.


That's just the cash bits.

You get status at hotels, for many road warriors that's worth a lot.
Walmart+ for free. That's ~12 bucks a month, or $145 a year if you use that service
Centurion lounge access. Worth 100s of bucks for those that travel a lot.

Probably missing a few. Short of it is, if you travel even fairly casually, this is a card that you get money back on. If you are a full on road warrior, this card is a must have in the pocket.

Link to kielbasas? Worth it?

Half the stuff on my christmas tree is from cashing in my Saks credit. Ornaments, tree topper, etc.

My other go-tos are housewares like random Georg Jenson serving items.
I got this set set of double-walled beer glasses a while back and absolutely love them. Keep your beer cold much longer. https://www.saksfifthavenue.com/p...NO%20COLOR

Use a 10% off coupon and some cashback and they can end up basically free (although paying $9 for them isn't a bad deal either).


That said, I'm thinking I might be done with my platinum card. With the fee hike and the fact that I moved somewhere without usable Uber/Uber Eats...it gets harder to justify. Unfortunately, I have to figure out how to spend my giant pile of MR points before I leave.

There is a 40% bonus for transfer to British Airways. Google british avios sweet spots. Lots of value flying domestic as well as international.

Wow, that 700 bucks annual fee is steep, 15 years ago it was 400 bucks and the black card had about a $2500 annual fee iirc

Does this cover add-on within Hulu like HBOMax?
It should. Billing shows Hulu.

I added Disney+ from Hulu subscription because my existing Hulu is $6.99 and it was showing $2.99 to add Disney+. I don't need ESPN+. Can use the remaining $9.99 for Peacock Ad-Free which I will not be watching at all.

I'm not 100% clear, can someone tell me if you got a card and your partner got a card you would get $240 per card or $240 in total?
All of the Amex Plat monthly/annual credits are shared between the primary cardmember and any authorized users. You can't double dip, but you share the credit. Like the primary and the authorized user could both have their own NY Times memberships charged to each's own card and both would be covered as the sum is less than $20.

This card is a no brainer for Equinox gym members. You get almost half your Amex annual fee back from just Equinox membership fees rebates.

Does this digital entertainment credit also cover Hulu add-ons?

Seems like you can get some pretty nice premium add-ons like SHOWTIME, HBO Max, Cinemax, and STARZ through Hulu.

Full list of add-ons listed here:

Will this work only for the primary cardholder? Or for others included?
