Amex no longer revalidates (extends) Taj voucher validity

[shashankrt]

Hi All,

Today got a rude shock when Amex Helpdesk (Platinum charge) refused to extend validity of Taj vouchers.
This was always extended as one time extension and helped in pooling the vouchers.
So now Taj vouchers are basically useless for stays as most taj properties are more than 10K per day.

Just fyi.. for tall those planning to extend validity of their Taj vouchers.

Also a query - Any other way to extend Taj voucher validity? I have approx 30K of expired vouchers.

In one of my earlier conversations with them, they had mentioned that they'll extend. And according to them since I was promised, they extended as a one time gesture. I felt for platinum charge they're still willing to try and hence they wanted me to call after my due date/ expiry of voucher ( sort of coinciding) just to be sure that I renewed my Plat charge.

I think people holding plat charge & renewing it, putting significant spends on it might still get special treatment from Amex
