American Express Financial Review (FR) question ...

I've heard others got a FR from American Express after using their card on Paypal or going over their spending patterns ? but has anyone got a FR or had their charged cards (Platinum or Gold) close for not using it or for only using it for only small ticket items ?

I don't think it is likely charge cards would be closed for non-use since they are AF cards and in some cases high AF cards. Amex rather have those AFs coming in. An FR would not occur for non-use of a card.

No you're not going to get FRed.

 

Also how about consolidating some og your questions into one thread instead of starting multiple ones back to back to back

No.  You are thinking too hard.  You will be fine. FRs are done when they is a red flag.  As long as you don't do something wild (like gambling and others) with your card, you will be OK.

Yes OP you will be fine...I think you are overthinking this issue, just like a couple of your other threads. Just use your cards, pay on time, enjoy the rewards, and live. There is no requirement to use a card to avoid FR or anything....whatever will happen, will happen. Can't stress about things we cannot control. But no, you will not see FR due to non-use.
