Amex Optima Platinum Card, BVG and no annual fee.

[KK]

Don't know if this has been posted yet, but it appears like this card has the BVG that blue is cutting out. It also has no annual service fee. Pulled this info from dpreview open talk board. Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks,
KK

i couldn't find bvg listed as one of the benefits for the optima cards. the gold and platinum normal cards have it though.

Here is where I found it listed under the optima platinum. I hope the link works.

You guys will kill optinum BVG soon.

Eh, most of those lowlife douchebags that scammed it out in the first place probably can't qualify for a platinum card anyway.

The AMEX Small Business Gold also has the BVG program. That's the one I happen to have.

Before you go through the trouble with applying for the card, I would suggest you call first to see if they plan on cancelling this program on 4/30 like they plan on doing for the Blue.

I'm not a betting type, but I'm ready to make a cash wager they'll kill BVG on ALL no-fee credit cards. We all know they're taking a beating on these pricematches. They'll have to make that up somehow.
