    How often does the list on the front page get updated? Its not so helpful to keep track of outlets that do/don't take Amex if you have to read through 23 pages of stuff.

    hi
    we will not be taking amex in our shop any more
    Reasons are higher charges for merchants
    longer time to get to our bank
    and an absolute maze to get to merchant services

    notts county fc take it
  • a lot of private Hotels will not accept Amex.-also true in a lot of Europe & most of Africa. You must always check when you book; otherwise it can get a tad embarassing.

    Quite frustrating really - work for a US firm; so have a corporate Amex; useless as so few hotels & resturants take it. My US colleagues have VISA; needless to say they have the same problem with VISA in the US (though not quite so bad) as we have with Amex in EMEA.
