Which Amex would you recommend for most value? I use my CSR for every day stuff, and have a Delta Amex Gold. Should I switch to Delta Plat or Reserve? Or stick with what I’ve got?

Amex Premier Gold. 4x on dining and groceries

It depends. I have both plat and reserve. The Reserve resulted in me getting upgraded to FirstClass every time I flew Delta. The reserve gives you elite status so with the card it made my Delta Platinum Elite, putting me at the top of the platinum list. If you are not flying delta a lot. I would go with the regular Amex plat, it has a TON of perks

i don’t want to speak too soon but i think the best promos (e.g. targeted offers) happen toward the end of the year
