Thanks @JDB

I guess you’re the lawyer. But here was me thinking terms and conditions should be clear rather than vaguely implied.

Anyway. I was present at the birth of both Kermit and Freddo yet I have little or no knowledge of their intentions on a daily basis.

Enjoy Argentina. I’ll be thinking of you at 9 o’clock when we’re paying a lawyer to interpret weird wording which ironically relates to accounting but the accountants want to be able to blame the lawyers if there is pushback at any point…

@Froggee – I’m not a lawyer! I have been reading contracts and agreements for work purposes for many years though even though I had the benefit of a legal team to make sure the document had the effect I wanted it to have or said what I thought it said. I also have in home counsel. The terms are a mess/poorly drafted as @AJA says. It’s very poor practice to have terms that aren’t enforced and maybe Amex never will enforce them but we are generally seeing credit cards tightening up in response to customer (poor) conduct as well as much tougher economic times.
