    It is yet another advantage of American Express just a shame there are still places that don't accept it.

    I believe that most the AmEx ones are secondary cover however, certainly the one attached to the Platinum Chargecard is. So if the theft is covered by your Home or Travel insurance etc then it has to take the hit, only if its not covered by them does the credit/ charge card insurance kick in.
