My Amex card was declined today at a gold store. Tried thrice, first for 2.36lakhs, then 1lakh then just for 36k but all three transactions were declined. In the POS machine it was written card not honoured.
Upon contact amex customer care number they informed me that Amex has some policy that the card needs to be atleast 6 month's old before makings any transaction towards gold. My card is 2months old
