    Credit Card Offers Amex Explorer Offers & Discussion

    My wife called this morning to link her Explorer and Edge on the same account. First call went through to an Australian CSR and she had no problems linking them together. Says it will take 24 hours for them to link and move the points across . I can already see the accounts linked after 30 min.

    Got mine to about $8 a month. Set the cover amount to the minimum $100k for Life and TPD. The key to lowering the costs is removing the options on each policy.

    My first business class experience

    Yes you will be considered a CX passenger since you arrived on a CX flight, they normally only request to view your boarding pass from your flight. I have used the lounge quite a few times when I have booked the flight with QFF points.

Some directions on how to...

    From my experience, I used the same login for both Platinum Edge and Explorer and they came unlinked. I spent my $1.5 and got the bonus points. I had to call 3 times but got them to link my accounts, the points transfer took about 24 hours to process.
