Amex used to quite clearly state that you could only have one Amex credit card. They seem to have given up on that judging by the various application forms I have seen in recent times.
I have applied for one. It pretty clearly states that you have to apply before Midnight on the 31st August 2006, so not worried about the points.
Will Amex issue me a card? Still to find out. Oh well. Already have my Plat Amex if they deem me too much of a credit risk (not that they're gonna touch that card!)
I don't really want the card. The points are quite nice, and I think I'll book a QF flight, give away the passes then cancel the card once the points are transferred.
Gotta use the system as per the terms and conditions
(Actually, the one thing I really liked about the application was the absence of the "Nearest relative/friend" question. I hate that question. If I go "missing", why should they be able to phone a friend and harass them about where I am? Or alternatively, if a random "friend" puts my name down, why should I have to put up with harassing phone calls in the same situation? Wish the Fed Govt would outlaw that question. )
