★★★★ "I had a terrible experience with Amex, I cannot recommend them to anyone. Never book with Amex Travel either, it's just a huge waste of time. They are unclear on fees, made a mistake in the booking I had to fix with Qantas for 2h, and they …" - Dave T

★★★★ Dave T 5/8/2026 v7.29.0
I had a terrible experience with Amex, I cannot recommend them to anyone. Never book with Amex Travel either, it's just a huge waste of time. They are unclear on fees, made a mistake in the booking I had to fix with Qantas for 2h, and they don't even have a way to change your booking online. You always have to call them. I mean, it's 2026....
★★★★ Kristian K 4/8/2026 v7.24.0
Very poor customer service.
★★★★ Christian Bischoff 4/7/2026 v7.27.0

★★★★ F E 3/22/2026 v7.27.0

★★★★ Kevin Sigston 3/22/2026 v7.27.0
If you don't use your login regularly you get locked out. Then you sit on the phone for ever.
★★★★ Wayne Anderson 3/14/2026 v7.27.0
overseas transaction fees are a rip off
★★★★ Sage Solutions 2/16/2026 v7.26.1
things time out before you can finish what you're doing. makes it very hard to use any special bonuses that exist within your account
★★★★ Lluis S 2/13/2026 v7.24.0
why is this not available on android 11?
★★★★ A Google user 1/11/2026 v7.24.0
Today I have been unable to log in as usual to several AU based apps and yours was one of them.. Please be advised that I am a long time Amex customer, fully verified. I will NOT be supplying further bio data here, nor do I agree to be tracked around my phone with AI. if not fixed back to normal shortly, I'll be deleting the app.
★★★★ Owen Griffiths 1/4/2026 v7.24.0
Can't see past Transactions after 2 weeks
★★★★ Boon Chuah 12/25/2025 v7.24.0
the travel credit cannot be apply. it ask you to choose card after you put all the details to search for a hotel, after you click choose card it goes back to previous screen and you are in a loop. please fix this asap
★★★★ Faizul Haque 12/10/2025 v7.24.0
Unable to set up account for additional card. Support via chat was unable to resolve the issue.
★★★★ Ross Burdon 12/8/2025 v7.18.2
Disappointed that my Android version is no longer supported with the last update. This is the first app in which this has happened. It's a warning to check every app before you update. To roll-back seems difficult.
★★★★ Leo Comino 12/5/2025 v7.24.0
Dealing with the American express team will ruin your day, they are completely incompetent.
★★★★ Tuhin Kap 11/7/2025 v7.22.0
cannot download statement
★★★★★ Colin Chan 2/27/2026 v7.26.1
Not a true native experience. UX is very average. I wish it were easier for me to see what benefits I have (and how many used vs available, expiry) within a dashboard. p.s ever since amex changed their points program, airline points are hardly worth it. not sure about this pivot to everyday spend at the cost of it
★★★★★ Art Poirier 12/5/2025 v7.24.0
The app used tonwork, now I can't book flights. Enter flight details, press go, and I'm taken to a page to book hotels. I go back to the page to book flights, and all the details I entered are still there. And here begins the infinite loop. And I still have a tonne of points I can't cash in.
★★★★★ Andrew Wilson 11/25/2025 v7.22.0
When I book flights it keeps locking me out saying "5 minutes of inactivity" (which is not correct) and I have to start all over again... very frustrating..
