Excellent card with good service

Credit Karma Member

Fico score near 800, wasn’t pre-qualified on the amex website but had very good chance on credit karma. Was approved for over $22k. Application process didn’t ask for my current skymiles account so it set me up with a new account. Had to call amex customer support link the card to my actual skymiles when I got it. Took about 5 minutes and they were very friendly. I wouldn’t recommend this card for daily use but it’s great for travel, especially if you prefer delta already. It doesn’t give you all the high end benefits of a gold or reserve card but you also don’t have to pay an annual fee so I’d say it’s perfectly reasonable.

A good travel card offset by horrendous service

Credit Karma Member

I have had this card for quite a few years now. There were no issues at all and when I downgraded to the blue, the agents were quite helpful. I was thanked for being a cardholder. Recently I went through a name change and the customer "service" agents have been quite impossible to deal with. I submitted documents the way they requested. They changed one card and left this and my other card unchanged on the account. When I called in about it, I was met with very rude agents from an outsourced call center. The agents talked over me, read from canned replies, and did absolutely nothing to resolve my issue. It still hasn't been fixed. A "supervisor" had the audacity to lie to me and state my paperwork wasn't filled out properly. I pulled the paperwork and it was filled out as he said it needed to be. I do NOT recommend this card. Do research and find a card with customer service that puts the customer first rather than treating the customer poorly.
