I don't whether it is or not but I'm ready to discount it because it was possibly came from the mouth of an amex rep.

Don't know how reliable when he says something like this:"This was the first time I’ve heard of a non-FR based axe from American Express."

He specifically wrote checks.
His DP ain't worth much.
There's always one lucky guy, but third party Payments to chase is asking for a shutdown.
already had them shut me down and had them reopen the accounts (long time ago).

You can pay your bill with any of your bank accounts that are linked online, the problem is when you send in a check from someone else to pay your bill.
why do you think if you pay it online they cant see who is the owner?

They can, that's why I said any of your own bank accounts.

DP.
I once paid a bill thru the banks bill pay, ended up having some credit on that account and wanted to move it another card.
Amex didnt approve the transfer of credit, instead they told me since the payment was from a 3rd party they cant transfer the credit. they even mentioned the name of the account holder.
did this many time but only once did they stop it.
