AmEx will be pimping (upgrading) their stone age slates to computers June 16 to 18, 2007 so you will not be able to transact business with AmEx MRs; including transfers via the web, telephone or other methods.

It is the US credit card option for earning miles (along with diners), getting the MBNA Amex over here is next to impossible...But can be done.

Well Dave, I would gander that it is impossible to get any MBNA product in the USA as MBNA has merged with the Bank of America. Personally I think they should change the name globally.

Also the US AmEx CREDIT cards normally feature Membership Rewards Options. I watered down program. The CHARGE cards feature the program as we know it.

All stupid and pointless info. Just rather waste time in bed than go to work. Plan to try McD's new burrito thing. Has eggs, potatos, salsa, and some other junx.
