American Express Platinum Travel Credit Card Renewal - Opinion

[BucksBunny88888888]

I have renewal coming after couple of days for my American Express Platinum Travel Credit Card. I just spoke with Amex support and they provided me 3 options for renewal benefit. Spent over 7 lacs in last year on my Platinum Travel credit card.

I also hold Amex Platinum Charge Card.

1. Discount of 50% on renewal fee that I end up paying 2900 Rupees, No Reward Points offered.
2. Pay full fee 5900 Rupees and get 10000 Amex Reward Points.
3. Pay 10000 Amex Reward Points from my Existing Reward point balance for full fee waiver of 5900 Rupees.

I think option 2 is better, interested to know your option and thoughts. They are not ready to negotiate beyond above 3 options, I tried my best.

Looking forward to hear from you guys.

Cheers!

I had spend 4 lac in the previous year and got this offer but I don't know if it is based on someone's spending.

Offer is same with minor offer changes to some else standard 1.5lk in 90 days or 50% fee waiver or pay full and get 10k mr

its same offer whether u spend or not since last 2 years.

Close amex if you have chance ..with plat devaluation there is nothing lefr

I have to complete my milestone 116000 remaining for 4lkh completion once I finish this I kormally don't use the card until my due dates are far off. I juggle between plat chg, travel plat, mrcc and gc.

Generally people consider 1 MR point as 0.5 so we can say 10k points as 5k Rs. In that case
Option 2 - you get 5k Rs (10k points) by paying 5900 Rs
Option 3 - you save 5900 Rs by paying 5k Rs(10k) points.
Isin't option 3 better? If you can extract more value than 0.5 Rs then definitely 2nd option is better.

Even my card is due for renewal. I called and asked for spends based renewal. Surprisingly they agreed to waive off my fee on making a spends of Rs 2,50,000 in 90 dayd

thats not good, many got 1L or 1.5L. 2L means ull be less return.

My Plat travel card renewal is coming up in 2 months, I am hoping they give me 10k points for paying the fee (5900) I generally use Marriott points where I get close to 1Rs/point

I was offered 1lakh in 90days full fee reversal on GC 50%on plat travel anyway mrcc was milestone for1.5 lkh so next renewal becomes free
