Only use avios with a voucher, can normally get 2p per avios. That 60k I'd worth in the region of 1200 quid...as long as you can do the 15k, it's well worth it
Why've Amex removed the word "platinum"?
Hi. I stupidly got a BA free card in Feb. Does this mean I can't get any sign on bonus on another AMEX card? Or is there another way I can stack? Or if I cancel the card now, will I be able to get the paid premium card? Please help, so confused!!!
Hi Andy, Appreciate if you could help please, I have BA Amex free credit card, can I get a welcome Avios bonus on any Amex card ?
It takes too long to update when you clear your credits update your data
What about if you can spend 10k in the first month? Will you get the both the 60k bonus points AND the companion voucher straight away?

yes exactly that. then you can ask amex to downgrade your card to the free one and you'll keep the bonus points and companion voucher
Andy that me received an email today from Santander saying “This is a reminder that the interest rate on your Easy Access Saver Limited Edition (Issue 3) will reduce from 5.20% AER/ 5.08% gross (variable) to 4.20% AER/ 4.12% gross (variable) on 20 May 2024. I do have savings waiting to pay off the house later at the end of the year due to retirement, What’s your thoughts ?

I'm in the same situation, I'll move it in a stocks and shares ISA and buy money market funds with it. Those give you return near the base rate and they're super low risk. And since it'll be in an ISA I'll be sheltered from taxation. Not a financial advice, just letting you know what I'll do with my savings.

My partner and I have just opened Cahoot Sunny Day Saver. 1 joint and 2 individuals. 5.2% up to 3k only in each account. May not suit everyone but at least 9k is at same rates as Santander after 19 May 2024.
Hi Andy, Thank you for the information. I got my BA premium card last week, I already spent 3k on that card. If I downgrade the card to BA card before the statement date, will I get the 60k Avios point and the full refund of the fee ?

Hey mate check with customer service but yes you will get most of the annual fee back, sooner you downgrade the better, just make sure the 60k avios are in your account

@cordster515 Thanks, mate.
I'll be getting rid of mine now
😮😢😢😢
Are there any experiences of Amex being funny about downgrading the card after securing the intro offer ?
Terrible offers IMO.
