Apologies for resurrecting an oldish thread; I’m in the process of moving back to the rock & haven’t found any up to date info on the Amex situation. I’ve got a Gold Preferred Rewards credit card & a Platinum charge card, and I’d like to keep at least one of them. I haven’t spoken to Amex yet for fear of flagging anything up on my file. Does anyone know if they have been closing charge cards as well as the credit cards? I’m half tempted just to have a permanent post office redirection from my current UK address…. I get the impression that I wouldn’t have much luck getting an IoM based card as I’ll be living from pension/savings income. Any input much appreciated!
From what we are seeing above, they will probably close your card and to be honest, I would recommend not committing fraud by lying that you are in the UK still and not IoM.
