yes. it's that or the amex platinum. i prefer the csr because the rebate is much more simple and the bonus categories are in restaurants where i spend more. the amex bonus points are in flights in hotels and the rebate is kafkaesque.

CSR and AMEX PLAT are still POTUS. The JP Morgan Reserve appears more prestigious because it looks cool but the benefits are SPS.

I don't use my CSR much. Can someone explain why it's more credited than Citi double cash back? I like getting the cash since I don't have a dad with a law firm that allows me to travel 250 days a year.

For me it all comes down to the lounge. In the US/domestic Centurion >>> Priority Pass (which Amex also gives you). I feel like even the ttt PP lounges are closing and now PP is more about (((discounts))) in various terminals.

AMEX: $30 paypal credit a month = $360 (better than $300 travel credit a year from csr) + $100 annual SAKs + $15 a month uber (better than $60 a year doordash) + Centurion Lounge AND Priority Pass.

paypal is ending soon though and idk if it's coming back, so that might affect the calculus.

agreed re paypal- didn't know that- and the $15 uber credit. Just abused CSR Lyft credit for a year. suprisingly decent.

what's the SAK stand for?

idk why i capitalized that. you get $100 is saks 5th avenue credits a year. it's split between $50 at the first half of the year and $50 in the second half.

you'd be surprised how good the Plat concierge can be if they want to. I left my laptop at security in Shenzhen once, didn't realize until I got to Johannesburg, the Plat concierge tracked it down, looped in a Mandarin speaker to liaise with the airport and got documents prepared in English and chinese to verify everything so that I could get it back.

Yes. Amex Plat sucks now, assuming you don't frequent Centurion Lounges. Their benefits this past year have been fucking SPS

Most of the Amex benefits don’t even work internationally. At least csr play still gives you 3x points on euro restaurants. Shit Amex plat benefits like Uber etc don’t work internationally and they have shit lounge coverage in euro

AmEx barely works as a credit card overseas, frankly. Seen ton of places that take Visa/Mastercard but not AmEx and maybe twice have I seen a place that takes AmEx but not Visa/MC. Not much point to the "no international fee" if nobody takes the fucking thing.
