Big shocker that the credits for a New York based financial company would primarily be focused on northeastern chains 😂

I am impressed that your Mandarin is so good. Cantonese 👍 Huge bonus. BTW I enjoy your other channel where you do a deep dive into the Chinese culture.

The Cheesecake Factory clip was the perfect opportunity to insert the Boondocks clip where Huey is a waiter and tells his customer that everything on the menu will kill you.

i do like the dunkin perk ngl haha but not a big fan of annual increase😅

Live in Japan. Unhappy because the only value I get is 4x on restaurants. Everything else is, I believe, US only -- which does me no good.

I WANT to be able to justify gold because I like the look of the white gold card, but I would just be chasing after a lifestyle I don't have

Hi Ben, AMEX just released the updated Gold Card information on their site this morning Thursday July 25th 😃

[dino]

Wow get this. I went to my local Five Guys and I thought the guy charged me three times because the receipt wasn't printing and I swiped three times all approved. A girl comes over and says we don't take American Express, I go what, but you have a big promo with Amex.

i've had this card for close to 3 years now and if it actually does jump to $325, ill be cancelling it. there's not enough value for the yearly fee. adding dunkin'? i hate coffee and 5 guys? not one anywhere close to me. sad to see amex going this route honestly

[DragonShadow]

Yeah…I’ve already decided to cancel. The card was barely worth the fee today.

[metalheadami]

If they changed groceries and dinning to 5% then maybe it’ll be worth

[veronikagundersen]

Gonna drop the Gold this year and just move to the green. The Gold credits have been a pain for me to use anyway, I'm not eating out like I used to, and my nearest grocery store is Walmart so I can't even get the 4x on groceries. Green still has 3x on restaurants and I can use the Clear credit. Might even drop the Platinum since I'm not traveling as much anymore, plus that's the next one that will get revamped and the AF will go up.

After 18 years, it’s time to sign off for Amex Gold.

[carlosleshawn]

Will be keeping the gold and the savor one. Travel tip - flights are 3x on gold and hotels 5x on savor in cap one portal. This is the best travel duo for foodies

[rethinkrich]

I called AMEX to cancel and they offered to waive the fee if I spend $2000 in 3 months. I said done! I pay all my monthly bills with the card anyway! Car, Insurance, utilities, Food, gas etc.

[teruhero]

Just cancelled my rosegold amex and switched to the CO venture card. Amex is getting greedy for sure.

They did offer me a 40, 000 retention if i spend 3k in 3 months. But after being with them for 18 years... the 40k doesnt justify it. Its gotta be like 100k or something

[CarlosCastro-tucw]

I still don’t understand how the resy credit would work???!?

[pepepez]

No one ever mentions the "offers" that you can get through numerous vendors and merchants. I got $40 back just for being a YouTubeTV subscriber

[chrisbrown]

I can definitely use the DD credit so I’ll keep the Gold card for at the very least another year. I’m 5 years in with it and I get a ton of points out of it while also being able to use all the credits.
