Interested in firm reimbursement policies: here at PwC, the firm pays our Amex bill. Have heard at other firms they pay you and then you pay Amex. Pluses minuses.? Tax implications? Experiences?

Most B4 (and other larger firms) will provide you with a Corp card and thus they will pay the bill for you upon submitting your expense reports. For smaller, more boutique-like firms I’ve worked for, we used our own personal credit cards and requested reimbursement. Personally - and bc I have the AMEX Platinum - I’d prefer to charge my travel expenses to my personal card because of the crazy points I’d accumulate. I’m now at a larger firm who uses Diners Club as the Corp card and am not allowed to use my personal card for business expenses.😭😭😭

Totally agree D1. I would have soooo many more points for hotel and airlines.

ACN you get reimbursed and then pay the bill when it’s due. Doesn’t really matter tbh... unless you rely on the balance in your bank account to determine how much money you have. There are no tax or credit implications of either approach. This way you just need to remember to pay the bill.

Id get a separate accnt for sure - i track all my money and would hate to mix to two

PwC’s direct AMEX payments are relatively new, implemented in the last 3-4 years IIRC. Since we have to use the card, I like it - one less bill to deal with.

I agree and like it. I came in 2016 and it was like this. My last firm did the same so I didn’t realize that the reimburse employee and they pay was even a thing.

We do corp Amex. More seamless, but miss the points from my personal card :(

How? Never heard of that before.

Reimbursement = Free points
Nuff said

BDO

They reimburse, we pay corporate Amex. Direct bill for ride share on a business account and on flights. Hotel can go on personal, but that’s it.

Points eligible if you pay for that perk, but direct bill airfare and a hotel CC leave limited opportunity on the Amex for points.

My boyfriend and I make 200K combined and live in NJ. We have $1000 in monthly car payments combined. That’s all we owe. Our credit scores are in the 800s. We have 50K to put down on a home. We have done the math and I know we can afford much more but he doesn’t want to buy more than a 400K home. I’m almost positive we can afford 500K and be more than ok. But then he starts to talk about how much kids cost and how we will be house poor and we won’t be able to afford kids. 🤔 Am I insane??

The other problem is that used cars are so damn expensive right now so I can’t just buy a used mx5 for 5-10K
