Is the Amex Platinum card worth $695? #shorts



SIGN UP FOR THE AMEX PLAT: https://bit.ly/46P7TPv

If you’re able to manage and remember to use all of the benefits that the Platinum offers, then I’d say you’re instead getting paid by Amex by getting this card.

Are these benefits worth it for you? Or are you traveling so much that you’d forget to utilize all these benefits?

  1. Spare a thought for us poor British people. We only get 30k points as welcome bonus and far fewer and limited credits for higher fee

  2. It was tempting, but i would spend more money if i got equinox (membership prices are insane lol), spend more with streaming services I donā€™t have (i use scribd for audiobooks), probably not use the airline fees. Ultimately Iā€™d be spending more for everything! This seems to be tailored for specific people. Went for the gold card instead šŸ™‚

  3. So worth it, if you travel and use the benefits. AMEX Platinum customer service is exceptional!

  4. As a frequent travelerā€¦ this card is a god send. And I save so much money on food in airports and sitting down between layovers and before flights is taxing on my back with my bags since itā€™s heavy and sitting comfortably is super important to me. I will be traveling most of this month domestically and internationally and this card is already helping me out- I have clear and global entry. I have lounge access.

    This is a life saver for someone in a rush and doing business and leisure travel. Thank you Amex for having people like us in mind.

  5. No. Maybe a quarter of the credits and extra cost to use lounge for 2 people. Still early in the credit game but can't justify with several trips a year.

  6. You have no idea how much your help has meant to me Ricchdawg ,There was nothing random about your acts of kindness. You made me myself again with your credit card things šŸ’ÆšŸ’ÆšŸ‘†šŸ»šŸ‘†šŸ»

  7. Its Worth it if You use the Credits mentioned. I know everyone can't use all of them but at least get around $700 worth of credits to make it worth it.

  8. Itā€™s worth if you meet the criteria, if you have the sufficient income like 80K or more a year MIND! anyone this is a (charge card) and you do pay it in fully not split payments, also thereā€™s no utilization rate thatā€™s nice with no limit but itā€™s cons to that just know what your doing before getting this card donā€™t be dumbā€¦ā€¦ā€¦..

  9. The annual fee is a scam. Your literally paying part of the ā€œbenefitsā€ you receive. Were so hypnotized so easily.

  10. Nope not for me, and all the students out there who is working two part time jobs with barely any vacation day, and the only days off are being occupied by studying and homeworkšŸ˜­

  11. For the lifestyle of our family, it is worth it for us, we travel often and try to maximize on the benefits, good video and summary

  12. Iā€™m over the chase 5/24 stupid rule and capital one just wouldnā€™t give me a venture x so Iā€™ll have no choice but keep the platinum for another year ā€¦.the minute I get a venture x or CSR card Iā€™m giving the platinum the boot šŸ„¾ right up its benefits.

  13. Itā€™s definitely worth $695 as long as you travel a bit. The lounges and free perks are worth it to meā€¦

  14. Really just if you travel a lot. Some of the credits are dubious because because an annual subscription would be cheaper than going the monthly route. Example: that $155 Walmart+ credit (must be paid monthly) really only has a $98 value because thatā€™s how much an annual subscription actually costs.

  15. I mean itā€™s hit or miss with the platinum. Sure you get access to the lounges, but the lounges are overcrowded stillā€”even with the guest policy. My discover does it for me as far as travel goes. Amex offered me the platinum card and having never had Amex I took it. If I could change anything I wouldā€™ve gotten the gold card instead.

  16. I used mine to take my family of four into the lounge in Lima Peru for free. It would have been over $400 without that perk. We used clear credit, $200 hotel credit, and Hilton gold status upgrade which gave us free drinks and breakfast buffet everyday of our 7 night stay. Not to mention the 100k points which was worth close to $1k depending on how you use them. Totally worth it out the gate. May not be worth it in subsequent years. Itā€™s something to really think about.

  17. I believe that AMEX platinum card benefits is getting worst because around Amex airport lounge access rules requirement such as additional guest limit etc

  18. I use everything except the equinox and soul cycle credits. Even with a player 2 itā€™s well worth it for me.

  19. You get ā€œpoints.ā€ SMH šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø People lose their minds when you mention ā€œpoints.ā€ WHAT IS THE VALUE OF THE POINTS?!?!?
