Both CSR and Amex Plat have enhanced benefits due to COVID. I have both and seeing massive value.

like

Definitely the Amex Platinum. If your firm also uses Amex (Corporate) then you may be eligible for $150 off the AF under their Corporate Advantage Program. At the moment - enhanced benefits are $20/mo each for wireless credit (personal phone devices / any wireless plans) and for streaming services (Netflix, etc). That's $140 up until 12/31 for each of the two (total $280). Plus - Uber credit monthly, Saks $50 credit 2x/year and airlines incidentals, priority pass and global entry. Makes the AF a non-issue in my mind, at least for this year!
DM me for a referral if you don't mind and intend to go for the Amex Platinum?

Only if you don't think you'll be about to get value beyond the annual fee.
