Episode Description

This week we learned of some expected changes coming to the American Express Business Platinum card. With the addition of Hilton credits last year, we have now seen a downgrade to other popular benefits including the Dell credit. Is it worth getting and keeping after all of this? In other news Chase has released an increased value offer for some cardholders using Chase Travel. This is good and you'll want to see if you are targeted. We also discuss: matching welcome offers, Citi's product change downgrades, essential travel items, 5% categories and how to get a $13K prize with a travel treasure hunt. Episode Guide
