What is you guys go-to card for any perks that you deem important? I’ll go first? AMEX! If a company decides at act up, I just AMEX and let them know they got my product and my money. “Take it Back” without question they ALWAYS get my refund. Oh and that companion pass in airline tickets. Yup. Amex all the way.

Venture X because it has a 90k sign up bonus (via referral only) and the $395 fee is easily offset by the yearly $300 credit + 10k miles, as well as Global Entry.

I also live in a city with a Cap One lounge, which is one of the best US lounges I've been in.

100% Venture X, unmatched customer service

Have premium Amex, c1 & chase cards. Chase purchase protection across 7 instances has reimbursed me nearly $21,000 in destroyed items. I put all my expensive, non travel purchases on the card because I know I’m covered if something breaks

Do you have any examples of this “Take it Back” with Amex?

Hello fine people,
I have a question. I am a GDS employee wishing to relocate to another country as EY country “x” employee. The plan to relocate to country x was already in motion, if not EY then another org.

Is there a way I can approach this with my leaders? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
