Transfer Bonus and Virgin America Gold Status from AMEX
September 9, 2015
Transfer 80,000 American Express Membership Rewards to 40,000 Virgin America Elevate points by December 31, 2015 and receive top tier Virgin America Gold Status through February 2017.
In addition, if you complete the transfer by October 8, 2015, you will get 25% more Elevate points, so 80,000 Membership Rewards would equal Gold Status plus 50,000 Virgin America points.
Good Deal?
I value Membership Rewards at 2 cents each. I value Virgin America points at 2 cents each.

$10 Credit for New and Existing Uber Users
October 8, 2014
Uber is my favorite way to get around. I no longer call or flag down taxis. On a recent trip to San Francisco and Los Angeles, I didn’t rent a car, using Uber to get around instead.
Uber is the world’s best taxi service because it has clean, courteous drivers and the easiest ride-ordering app imaginable. Tap, tap, tap, and a car whose progress you can track towards you is on its way.
American Express is currently running a promotion with Uber during which new and existing Uber customers can get a $10 American Express statement credit.

American Express and Discover Have Highest Customer Satisfaction
August 28, 2014
The J.D. Power 2014 U.S. Credit Card Satisfaction Study concludes that American Express and Discover have the highest customer satisfaction of any credit card issuers.
The study measures customer satisfaction with credit card issuers by examining six factors:
interaction
credit card terms
billing and payment
rewards
benefits and services
problem resolution
American Express has been #1 for all eight years of the study, and this year for the first time, it was tied for the top spot with Discover.
Interestingly, overall satisfaction with credit cards is at a record-high, surpassing last year's record high.

This is Your Last Chance to Get Some Mega Bonuses from American Express
April 13, 2014
This is your last chance to get repeat bonuses on your favorite American Express personal cards.
Currently you can get the sign up bonus on an American Express personal card every 12 months. So if you got the bonus on, say, the SPG card in February 2013, you can get it again today.
Starting May 1, you will not be able to get a sign up bonus on an American Express personal card if you have ever gotten that bonus in the past.
