Soon the black card annual fee wont seem like such a stretch.  It's stayed the same for a while, as all of the lesser cards go up in price and throw in things like monthly donut credits.

Sounds like the perfect opportunity to raise the fee for the Centurion Card too.

I heard it directly from my account manager and they were gonna go from $5000-$7500 annually, but that is always subject to change.  It may not even happen.

If your Am mentioned this, it's probably going to happen. I also wouldn't be surprised if they raised it to $10K.

Hey, I’m gonna have to kindly ask you to take this comment down—last thing I need is Amex catching wind of it. Just kidding… kinda! 😂🤣
