  • The new cards will be actual coupon books and the mirror will break every time you use a coupon, giving you 7 additional years of bad luck

  • Looks like one of the new top-tier benefits was accidentally leaked:

    Free slice of cheese with any purchase at Burger King when you present your Amex Platinum card, limit one per day. One slice free per month with no purchase required. Two free slices in December. Valid through December 31, 2025.

  • My Business Platinum AF posts in two weeks. I hope they announce something within ~4 weeks otherwise I planned to close.

  • I heard another special enhancement is they are only going to let cardholders in to the lounge between 5:00 and 7:00 a.m., to reduce crowding. But those who spend at least $500k on the card will be allowed in until 8:30. But I can't wait for that mirrored card!

  • No need to improve the actual benefits of the card. Just make it look shiny. Tracks with the concept of looking at the shiny object and forgetting about the actual product.

    • For just $20 more per month on top of the $200 AF increase, you can unlock unparalleled value with this exclusive Amex x MIRROR special edition, designed to elevate your membership experience.

      I don't mind giving Amex more ideas as I've already closed all of my Amex cards. šŸ˜œ
