Yes but why...?

Why would you want to? You likely have a rewards credit card that offers better points. Unless of course you're talking about accidentally choosing the wrong card when booking a personal uber or something

I would think it's generally against policy... I wouldn't use it as a personal card, but if a few personal expenses are on it that's probably fine. That's the Deloitte policy anyway. Heard of senior people getting fired for putting big things on it (e.g. a car) for the points.

@A3 @D2 just started working so this is the best card I have for rewards. Will be applying for CSR very soon

Well.. When I was at ACN I never once used my corporate card in the entire time I was there as far as I remember as other ACN people have said its not strictly against policy, but I wouldn't use it as a personal card all the time just as a matter of principle.

It's not against policy. It can be used for personal expenses on a "limited " basis. All charges to the card are integrated with T&E and subject to later review... There's really no reason to use it unless you pay extra for one of the rewards program add-ons

No reason to use it for personal charges*

Yes.

I strongly suggest you keep work and private lives separate - no personal charges on corporate AmEx, no personal business via work work email.

For convenience, I have my Corp Amex set as the card for uber since most trips are business ones, the weekend bar rides I do not submit for reimbursements, no problems to date.
