Re: American Express Platinum Metal Card Thread

I just called in and the CSR confirmed on her computer that the card coming to me tomorrow says " metal" On her screen. So those of you wondering if you're getting a metal or not ( if your request date says 3/29 instead of 30th or not having the metal option online but says damaged replacement only) that you can check with the CSR for sure and they can tell you, but for sure it'll be metal.

Oops.  I started a thread as I thought it would be on-topic in Credit Cards.  Sorry about that.  I got automated prompts when I called, then I was immediately transferred to speak with someone and the process took less than 2 minutes from the time I dialed.  She said that i called early enough that I should definitely expect mine tomorrow and it shows that they're on the way for delivery tomorrow.


You don't have to apologize but so you and others know, any discussion about the looks and content of a card will always go to Smorgasbord.  This is true for all credit cards, not just Amex.

Thanks for clearing that up, Irish.  I would Kudo your post, but uhhhm, yeah. Smiley Happy

 

FWIW, I tend think of this as an actual feature - I've had to replace my plastic AmEx cards many times over the years due to wear and tear (not quite as much since EMV has become more common - it's amazing how rough some cashiers can be with cards).  So now we all wait...

Re: American Express Platinum Metal Card Thread

Love being an Amex Plat card member..

 

Me: I would like to request the Metal Amex Card.

 

CS: Sure, it will be sent to you by April 4th.

 

Me: Can you overnight it?

 

CS: Well yes of course, you will get it tomorrow via UPS.

 

 

That's how you justify the high AF on customer service experience.

I understand your comment about the feature of the card.  Thse types of threads have been placed in Smorg since before I joined so just following precedent.  Hope you enjoy your new card.

Re: Amex Platinum Members Rejoice!!!

I was told in chat that all you have to do request a replacement for a damged card. It will automatically be replaced with a metal card.

Ordered replacement, get it tomorrow!  I noticed about an hour after I ordered the Amex site was really getting hammered and was sluggish, hopefully there are no delays.


What does your request date say? When you click the replacement status of your card online. 


My request date says 3/29 and delivery 3/31. When I ordered the card, the option for metal card was there.IMG_3128.JPG

Not everyone shows that option as they are still updating the accounts .  My g/f's account shows that option but mine does not.
