If you're reffering to getting an AU then amex won't work, they're different card numbers.

Basically want a replacement card that’ll work as AU. I know it works w Chase. Does it work w Amex or when you request replacement, they change number of exp or cvv?

I know Dan wrote about requesting a replacement CSR card to use for spending without AU annual fee. I want to know if this "trick" works with Amex Platinum card or will they change card number? TIA!

Get a metal card.

[Wizard]

Get a metal card.

Already have. Can I request a replacement of that?

Then get a plastic card if they'll give it.

[Wizard]

Yes but if I request AU then I’ll be charged AF. If I request replacement, I’m nervous they’ll change the CVV code and then the metal will stop working. Do you know if that’s a concern? There must be people who wondered this before bec they wanted to spend on Platinum without paying for AU. Thanks for your help!

Have Delta Amex card and was just charged $95 AF. Anything I can downgrade to without AF or my only option is to close it completely?

Amex will change some numbers when getting a new card weather its the expiration date or the security code but it's not like chase where you get the same numbers

As far as an AU on platt goes add a green AU it's free

Theres the Blue Delta which has no AF. I'm assuming that you can downgrade to that card.

[Wizard]

Thanks. That’s fine. Just need free AU.

Sounds good. I’ll check that out. Thanks!

Oh, I thought you specifically wanted the same card number.

[Wizard]

No, was just concerned that if I requested replacement they would switch number. Didn’t realize cud request gold card..

 If I book a flight using a free delta companion pass and then cancel the card do they charge for the companion?

i see theres no thread for citi simplicity and i can see why as it is not lucrative as far as rewards go, but being as i am in a pinch, i was wondering if someone could weigh in whether i can do a 3+bm on citi simplicity.

Nope
