I like that American Express seems to be secured and reputable company. I have been a member for years. They have great customer service and the quality have not gone down through the years. I don't like how they do their interesting rates when you have a balance. It is better to pay off your balances because it seems even when you pay in full, they are still nickel and diming you with interest rates.

Never had a problem with my Amex. My only complaint is that they make it difficult to change your name when you get married. 13 years later and it’s the only card I have with my maiden name still. But overall this is a card I would recommend, the interest rate is reasonable and a few years back when I called to ask to have it lowered they did right away.

Have had American Express account for 50 plus years. Years ago they were the only card that helped parents with students in college. Provided a student credit card that parents were still responsible for charges, but only if you informed the student. I have never had any problems with charges, refunds or customer service. The card to have.

This a great credit card. It can keep one in good shape financially as it has to be paid in full each month. This card is accepted world wide and has a great reputation. They will work with you if there is a problem. There is another AMEX that lets you carry the balance.

Love Amex! Quality product and customer service! I heard they also treat their employees very fairly, and that employee satisfaction at this company is very high. That always matters when it comes to the service you receive as a customer, and I definitely will support a company that does this! I have the blue card.

I love the fact that AmEX has some of the lowest interest rates on their card. Their computerized introduction is not slow or have delays when I call for just basic stuff when I don't need to talk to a person. If I need a person, I can get to a customer service person without a lot of hassle.

Amex is a great credit card company! There's a bit of a stigma of what type of person has or can be approved for an Amex but they actually work with fair to excellent credit. Customer service is great and chat conveniently available makes it easy to contact them if needed!

I've carried Amex cards for more than 40 years. Our current gold card is our "go-to" card for daily use. It earns points and we use them for our vacations. It is very good. Amex is accepted almost everywhere we've been including Mexico and Europe. I have had a few hiccups with Amex customer service. Always resolved satisfactorily in the end. Amex uses an India-based calling center and those folks don't always have the ability to fix issues. Overall Amex is a great card around the world and I will always have one in my wallet.

The two best things I like about AMEX are customer service when I need to discuss my bill or a charge - they are quick to answer, know the process and procedures, and are kind and the other is the fact the items I purchased are under a warranty so if I was sent something that was broken or that I need to return the cover it for me!

I have multiple AMEX cards and I enjoy the benefits that come with the card membership. Their staff is often very pleasant but can be extremely frustrating due to misinformation and misinterpretation due to lack of knowledge or proper training. However, the company does put their members first.

I love working AMEX. Their customer service options are great and very flexible. You can chat with a representative in the app once signed in or call and speak with some directly. The wait time is never very long. Representatives are very knowledgeable and professional. And I love that they offer travel rewards!

AmEx was the first card I every got and have been with them for almost 30 years. I have never been disappointed with their customer service or resolving any charge issues or billing questions. They are the best example of what a "world class" corporation is to it's customers.

I have been very happy with my Amex cards. They are accepted just about anywhere now and they have very good customer service. Interest rates are very high compared to the past so don't use it unless you can pay it off each month.

I used American Express a lot. Never had a problem. I have to admit that customer service was much better when it was located in the US. Now I try to use only online, or in a chat, to avoid speaking directly to a customer representative.

We have an American Express rewards card. We are able to earn points through purchases made. Gas purchases earn double points. We are able to use these points for hotel rentals and much more and don't have to spend a penny out of my pocket. We have had to cancel our reservations a few times and have never had a problem getting our points back for that. I highly recommend the American Express rewards card.

I don't use my card very often, but I can say for sure that I have not had any issues with this company or using my card. Amex is accepted pretty much everywhere, as far as I know, and with fraud and id theft on the rise, they have security measures in place to protect the customers as much as possible.

The reason I have stayed with American Express for so many years is that I believe there fraud detection is second to none. And, the very few times I've had to dispute, they've always been there for me. I won't use anything else but American Express because I know but I'm about as safe as I can be with their credit card.

American Express has always been a good card but my only complaint is they must have high fees, because some businesses will not take it. I love that I can put my daughter on my account and set a spending limit. This helps with college expenses and maintaining a budget

Yes they charge a fee but if you use the card correctly you get a wealth of benefits. Just make sure you read all the print to see what they are. Airport lounges, car hire upgrades, car hire insurance. I had to call the call centre and the rep was very helpful. So yes - there is a fee but you get what you pay for - a great service and a card that can be used in almost all places.

I’ve been happy with my American Express card. I currently have a platinum card. I will say that their offers necessarily always work. I’ve also had an issue where an agent promised me $100 refund because of that very issue. Then in subsequent calls, the other agent complete disregards the prior content. Why are they promised me they record their calls, they wouldn’t work with me and listening to the car with me as proof. That’s the reason I wouldn’t give a full rating to this company - though – other than that-I’ve been happy.

I find the customer service great and have honestly shelved most other cards and solely use my Amex. Ease of use and great rewards ( it has literally saved me a lot of money on the cash back pgm and so is definitely very customer user oriented). Not really much else to say.

American Express provides the best all around service in the credit card industry. Their Plan It option is a great deal. And the ability for me to dispute merchant charges online is seamless, unlike other card services which require a phone call or letter. I only wish I could merge my two different Amex cards into the same online system.

Amex is absolutely top of the line for their card benefits and services. They’re constantly offering new benefits and services for their cardholders, and offer regular benefits through cash back. I was skeptical, but their blue cash preferred card has been my new go to.

I had an Am Ex many years back and from what I can tell they have not changed much. They have great customer service (which is saying a-lot for a CC company), good rates on insurance (although that may have changed due to the times) and flexible for the most part with the payments.

After initially building my credit, I got an American Express card. I love my card because they have such good rewards for using your credit card and have no yearly costs. I've only had to get in contact with their customer service once, due to a fraudulent charge, but they worked quickly to resolve my issue. Great company.

Amex has always been a great card with great benefits. My only complaint is they lost their deal with Costco. I don't know who is responsible for that but if you're reading this Amex please go to Costco and beg for mercy -- you deserve better -- you're not supposed to be like the other Credit Cards.

I have been an American Express card user for over 20 years! I love the Delta flight card which earns you points and the benefit of one free bag with the purchase of a delta ticket for up to six people in your flight party. If I ever have a fraudulent charge they are quick to resolve and refund.

Several years ago I was shopping at Macy's and was offered a chance to apply for the American Express credit card. I was approved very quickly and received a nice discount for the purchased I made that day. I have not had any problems with my card, or the service provided, since I opened my account.

I have a personal card and corporate card. I find it very easy to do business with American Express especially when calling their customer service line. The only thing I didn't like was that they changed the format of the Account page but there is a button you can click to go back to the old version. I like the older version better.
