    Sorry if this has already been posted. Boots have a big banner on their website saying they now accept Amex:

    All I ask is the chance to prove that money can't make me happy.
  • Have had my Amex Blue for all of 3 days now, and have found the following:

    Yes:
    London Transport (think this is only recent but they were happy to accept)
    Boots
    Snow & Rock (outdoorsy chain )
    MFI

    No:
    British Gas
    Islington Council
    STA Travel (according to website anyway)

    There is nowhere to use Amex on https://www.ebuyer.com . I'll wait for my Egg Money card to come through or buy elsewhere.

    My card arrived last week and I have tried to use it 3 times since then - to no avail. Applied for the card to put all my everyday spending on it ie groceries, petrol etc in order to maximise cashback, and pay it off in full each month. However, it is going to be quite a challenge!

    Polly all the supermarkets where we live take Amex and all petrol stations that we have used. Boots as well so keep trying :D .
