My Amex Platinum Retention Offer (How To Get One)

In this video, we go over how to get a retention offer for the Amex Platinum card by going over my credit card retention offer process. Getting an Amex Platinum retention offer was fairly easy and many other credit cards could give out offers this way as well, especially if they are annual fee credit cards. The American Express Platinum card in 2022 is expensive at $695, so getting an Amex retention offer definitely helps to justify the annual fee.

Overall, this process was pretty quick and easy for the Amex Platinum when I chatted with American Express customer service. I believe that because they increased the annual fee from $550 to $695 last year on the Amex Platinum Card, they anticipated that many people would be asking for retention offers this year in 2022.

If you were wondering, “is the Amex Platinum worth it to keep open?” then a retention offer like the one that I received should help you to say yes! But remember, with any credit card retention offer, including the Amex Platinum credit card, an offer is not guaranteed. This is simply a negotiation for American Express to keep you as a customer, so they have the final say to give you any retention offer at all.

I’ve been a card holder for 18yrs and this is my first time asking for a retention offer. I followed the discussion from your chat and received a retention offer of 55k points for $4k spend over the next 3 months. Thanks for sharing.

I called to cancel, and got the offer of a credit of $550 after $4000 spend in 3months! It was a "No Brainer" with this one.👍🏽😃👍🏽

I have to admit I was a little skeptical watching your video and reading some of the comments. However, I gave the retention offer ask a try anyway for my Amex Plat. I followed the way you set up the convo and their replies were almost identical to yours. Long story short, they offered me 55k points after a $4k spend. Thanks for the great advice.

My platinum card renewed in December and I received a 55k point retention offer. Never hurts to ask! Good job!

[markplymale]

It’s always worth asking! Worst they can say is no! So well said everything in life is negotiable. Super important to know! Well done on securing 40K points for $3K spend! Great content like always Daniel!

[merielcoleman]

Followed this today and 45, 000 points for spending 4K over three months and jumped on it. Thanks for the info.

[lostaunaum]

Oh man! Followed the script and go the 40, 000 membership reward points after I spend $3000 within 3 months of accepting the offer! Awesome tip man! Would have never thought of contacting them! Thanks for the tip!

Just contacted Amex and pretty much followed your step by step guide. Had to justify not using the FHR $200 credit and Equinox credit. And after that objection they shot over an offer... Received the exact same offer! Thank you for the awesome content and detailed videos man! You basically just made me $400 for 30 minutes of my time!

My Amex Platinum renews next month and have been wondering how to get a retention offer. This video came at the perfect time. Great job!

[travelfan]

Thanks for sharing your story. I was offered $500 in statement credit with $6, 000 in card spend within the next 6 months.

[ricardogazzola]

Just got 30k retention offer. Thanks for your huge help.

The fourth time they said this to me..."I did check on your request, Unfortunately, I don’t have any offers available to you today. The offer availability and value could change daily."

[zifnabdr]

I just finished up with chat and also got a 55, 000 points after you spend $4, 000 or more in 3 months. Really appreciate the video and challenging me to go looking! I did the same thing basically as i hadn't gotten a lot of value the last 12 months of the card.

[nickh]

Just took 5 min and I got a 40K offer as well. Thanks for the tip! Can't hurt to ask.

[Flamethrower]

Thanks Daniel! Got 30k retention offer after using a similar script on my gold card. Keep up the good content man 💯

[samsharma]

Thanks for this! Just got a 55k points retention offer after 4k spend in 3 months (not difficult with my unfortunate buying habits).

[fundjourney]

should you ask for it before it posts on your bill (like the month before?) or wait until it posts?

[christopherfuller]

I just called and received the same 40k offer after spending 3k in 3 months. Thanks for the help 👍🏻

[pau]

Haven't even had the my business plat for a year but just got a 40k point offer for $10 spend in 3 months. Thanks Daniel!

[trrl]

Thank you very much for your video! I got the 55k points after $4k spend in 3 months offer. I have had the platinum card since 2018.
