My American Express Blue card has been one of my favorites for years now.  While I will admit that part of its initial allure was the blue hologram square on the front (I mean, really, how cool does this card look?), its beauty is much more than skin deep.

First of all, this is a fixed rate card, which has been almost unheard of in my experience with credit cards. The rate has also stayed the same over the last five years, when I can assure you that the same has not been true for most other credit cards - even for customers who always pay on time and have excellent credit!  The travel insurance...

I love my Amex! I have been getting great rewards with this card. With this economy is always good for an average buyer like me to be getting as much as $35 a year even when I did not reach the full capacity of rewards I could have gotten. This year I am doing so much better and for the past 6 months I already got to the $25 mark. After I reach the $6500 that I have to reach to unlock the full potential I am sure that I will be getting a lot more than $50 this year alone. There are many other perks with Amex, such as concert advantages like early tickets, and many discounts in many places. This... read full review »

Overall I have a great relationship with this card. I have had the unfortunate problem of having my credit card cloned and used to charge almost $2,000 in fraudulent charges. American Express handled it with great respect and ease during a really emotionally trying time for me. I know that I can rely on them and use them often. Unfortunately with the state of the economy I have had my credit limit lowered and my APR slightly raised. Despite these setbacks, I am a loyal user of this card.

Great card.  Nothing beats cash back.  Customer service is excellant.  Online features of the card also include "dispute" which the company normally votes in favor of the consumer.  Plus, this card is linked to Costco so you don't have to carry or show the Costco membership card.

Highly recommend this card.  Most places take AMEX and the cash back you receive on all purchases really adds up!

The Blue from American Express is a great card for those that want to pay over time and it does not have annual fee so that makes it easy to keep and have. It is a card that you can get mileage for free and they do not expire and it has online protection.

I adore this card, what more can be said. From the great balance transfer offer upon opening the card, to the decent interest rates, free rewards account, no annual fee, and great customer service, I will always be a Blue from Amex fan!

We've had American Express for 25 years and now just because we haven't used the card in a few months they just up and cancelled it. You would think they would want to keep customers who had been loyal for so many years.

I have had American Express for over 20 years and have been extremely happy with them.  I would never get rid of them as I have with othe credit cards, only keeping one Visa and Discover card (for gas).

I got my Blue American Express Card many years ago because I thought it looked cool.  Little did I know it was much more than a neat little clear card.  I get great rewards from my normal everyday spending.  By the end of the year I have enough points to cash in and get several $100 gift cards.  You can cash in and get other things too but my favorite is the gift cards.  Each 10,000 points equals $100 gift card.  Every dollar you spent it a point.  There are promotions run often like triple points for your top three categories.  You can get bonus points for shopping on certain sites. ...
