  • My Amex Blue has been rejected by Asda 4 times in the last fortnight. However, it works everywhere else okay - Tesco, Somerfield, Shell, ..........

    Works in a few different Asda (and Asda petrol stations) stores for me. Odd.

    That looks horrible wrong. All of these last time I checked take American Express.

    Would be a bit stupid if Harrods didn't since they have an American express card...

    I use my Amex in the following;

    BP
    Esso
    Shell
    Texaco
    Jet
    Marks and Spencer
    Selfridges

    So I suggest you take another look at your list. As for the other shops on it, they may well take Amex to but I have never shopped in them.
    If my posts have random wrong words, please blame the damn autocorrect not me :D

    They all take Amex, he must have meant that they do.
