Amex plat has been handing out retention incentives like candy. Just shoot them a message through the chat very likely they throw you something if you use the card.

They gave me 40k MR for 3k spend offer a few weeks back. Obviously not quite the sign up numbers, but put makes the cost a lot more palatable

I don’t. Just use at for the offers/statement credits/benefits.

But am right now to hit the 3k spend.

Most typically goes on gold, but also spend $15k a year of so on groceries/dining

I work as a Business Development Manager at a sports club.. I’ve been given a couple of months “trial” in the 6 figure and above sales in which I don’t see going back to my other role on lower sales. This was a somewhat good move for me until I consider missing out on commission each month that was more than my salary. (£25k salary, over £2k per month commission)
How do I go about raising this concern? I believe I should be paid more now and at least change my job title?
