Customize-> Select HD and then hit update.

I want an Amex Corporate Platinum Card. $300 a year, but well worth it.

why is it worth it
 
$1,000 stipend for Return Protection - They take back something I dont want
$50,000 in purchase protection- They insure everything I buy against breakage, theft, and stupidty (I lose it)
$250,000 in travel accident insurance. I die while travelling, my loved ones are taken care of.

Thats just the beginning. They have access to tix for face value for events like the Masters, Pro sports, etc... that they make available and if you book a flight internationally thru their travel agency they give you 2 for 1 on the price.

Theres more stuff to it. You get a concierge and stuff so you can have him send flowers to the GF you just pissed off and have him book reservations on a moments notice cause you forgot her birthday thru Amex Fine dining (Holds tables open at some of the finest restaurants across the country)

I doubt I would use the tix and the fine dining, but the I REALLY like their insurance programs.

wow, If i was actually buying a lot of stuff these days, i would consider that. man, that card owns!

i lose crap all the time 😱

I think I have some of those features on my Amex CostCo Platinum Rebate card.
 
I guess I should have said one that has a BVG-type thing, that a college kid could qualify for hehe. College kid w/o a small business that is...

You can still apply. Give it a shot. They audited me though to make sure once. I sent them all the paperwork and they lowered my spending limit.

Hey very cool, thanks for the heads up.

Whoa!

Does this apply to the normal Platinum Card (which I hold), or just the corporate one?

BAH! The Canada Platinum Card has nowhere near the amount of goodies and perks that the US Platinum Card has.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeak. :frown:
 
Sweet...I just found out today that I got approved for mine, so I should be receiving my card shortly. Long process...I had my Circuit City Visa 3 days after applying in the store. I applied for Blue on the 3rd, just approved now, and up to 10 more days to get the card? Oh well...it looks cool 🙂 What kind of limit did you get?

What are the requirements for getting one of these? I'm assuming you have to get it through/for a business you work for/own?

I think you can apply even on a personal level.

I've heard of cases where people use it as a personal card, Just you have to be prepared when they hit you with a financial review. I had to furnish last years federal tax return as well as several other finacial related corporate documents.

See if the personal platinum offers similar bennies.

Watch your spending. I've close to max out my card already. It's a trap. You better have a lot of self-control.
