I just down graded from an AMEX Gold Rewards at $150.00 yearly fee to the new Zync $25 yearly fee to save money..
been a member for 20 years “91″ and asked AMEX if Ithis will lower my Monthly Limit ..

They said no and my limit is $70,000 a month.
So i think some of you have had some late payments in the past or your actual credit scrore took a hit . I only average $800-$1,200 a month. Last month I bought Kitchen Cabinets and a Snow blower plus normal usage and my bill was over $9,000 and never heard a word from AMEX …

I have had my AMEX card since 1981, always paid on time and used it regularly for business in excess of $10K/month. Then yesterday I get an automated voicemail saying my new spending limit is $5K. No explaination or call or letter tome “the MEMBER”, just a FU phone message. What if this had come in the middle of a business trip?

Talk about losing a loyal customer!

Am Express lowered my limit below my balance. I have never missed a pament, and have always paid over the minimum payment. I have not used the card in over a year and I am just making payments.

this makes me furious. How can this be legal. Now the will start charging me over the limit fees. Once i pay this off the have lost a customer for life.

If this is how they treat their good customers than i hate to see what their doing with their bad ones.
You will no longer have me as a customer and I will tell everyone I know about how horrible you are.
