Cancel on the 366th day.
They charge you $250 fee upfront so it won't really matter.

All, just an update. I applied for the card and was instantly approved.

It looks like the $120 annual dining benefit in $10 monthly credit is limited to certain resturants / chains.

Please see screenshot. This was from the AMEX Gold Card benefits page.

Quote from microzeta :
No, it's not statement credits. You add your Gold card to your Uber account, Uber directly adds $10 to your Uber Cash balance on the last day of each month. It'll list the expiration date for that portion of the balance in your Uber account.

Can you pay the rest of the Uber charge with another credit card? Or does it have to be Amex?

It pays for itself, amex insurance alone is worth it for me. Used my warranty for my Xbox. So far this credit card has given me money.
wait, what? how? so you can just say your electronics is broken and they'll give you back money in full? it works on ANYTHING?

Can be whatever, I generally use Uber gift cards so $10 credit combines with the gift card balance.

"because you have or have had this Card or the Premier Rewards Gold Card, you are not eligible to receive the welcome offer."

What the heck?? I never applied for this before.

Platinium has a much higher anual fee. Rather take the 75k gold if the benefit of the platinum is not worth it for u. If u travel alot planinum is well worth it

Quote from eduardmc :
cant wave the anual fee but i heard that after the year you can speak to retention to get a deal that will offset the cost with extra points just so you can keep the card

Hey. Can you explain a bit more please? Was trying to figure out a way to recoup the high plat. Fee

You dont lose any point. You can transfer ur points to another amex card Transfer your points to the gold.. or get the everyday card. No anual fee and transfer your point to that if u dont want another card with anual fee

Any other amex card won't matter right? Each bonus is once per product?

Not true, Once 12 months has passed, you have 30 days after your fee posts to cancel.
