  • Thanks for the tip on the Platinum Amex - I'm switching from A&L Visa after many years of getting low amount of cashback which they simply deduct from your bill now, don't even bother sending you a cheque!

    Just a tip - I checked on Quidco who are paying £33.75 cashback for each successful application for Platinum Amex. Obviously it will take a while to check but worth a try. Bonus!
    Thanks to MSE for.....
    Moneyback from greasy palm (£40.22), quidco (£207.90), cashback kings (£150.50)
    Free Pizza Express and Zizzi meals

  • Hello! Lots of shops and restaurants accept AMEX (I personally use it mainly to top up my Oyster card and buy train tickets. However I also used it in Novotel, Boots, Homebase, Somerfields, Ocado). I think the reason why AMEX give cashback is to get people to keep on ASKING.
    Most of the shops will also have, at the counter, a list of accepted cards; so you may look if AMEX is featured without needing to ask.
    Otherwise... don't worry and ask. You really have got nothing to lose (actually, you will only gain!).
