If you are about to drop some serious money onto one of their 10x or 20x retailers then the Ultra plan can be worth it just for the points. But if you mainly spend on 1x retailers then I think you need to get value from the rest of the proposition to justify the fees IMHO.

I couldn’t make the Ultra plan stack up – I’ve just renewed Amex Plat for a year – but having done the sums, I’ve upgraded to Metal.

They don’t do a very good job of explaining the benefits! They advertise the price at £14.99 a month, but since you have to commit to a year, you may as well pay it upfront for £140 (£11.67/ month).

That also unlocked a ‘spend £2k, get 5000 points’ challenge – which weirdly wasn’t advertised either.

Valuing those points at 1p each, I can certainly get value out of the net Metal cost of £90.
