Does the Fidelity Amex count against the 4 max Amex CC limit?

But probably nothing that you use, right? I think Arrival+ downgrade is worse.

Did FIA dump amex? I can't access the signup page; it just says come back January 4 to see our card. I'll try calling.
ETA: damn.

that's what the article is saying... although it sounds like they might switch from Amex to Visa or MC..

The article doesn't know anything. I'm curious what they're gonna offer with Schwab, but not hopeful.

Boston Globe implies no

Quote from: Boston Globe

Fidelity, based in Boston, expects all of its credit card customers to have the new cards by July 1.

but Fidelity website says yes (for now at least)

Quote from: Fidelity Website

What if I already have a Fidelity Rewards Credit Card issued by FIA Card Services®?
If you have a Fidelity Rewards Credit Card, you can continue to enjoy the features and benefits associated with that card. If you would like information about rates, fees, other costs and benefits, please call an FIA Card Services® representative at 877-811-7088.

The Bank of America serviced Visa and AMEX cards were pulled a week or so ago. The new product has been released.

It is now serviced by Elan. Elan does the servicing for a wide variety of credit unions and smaller banks.
