★★★★ Kyle Winters 4/30/2026 v7.28.1
Does not work. Simply dumps back to login page after entering credentials (with no error message) on version 7.28.1
★★★★ DJ Smith 4/30/2026 v7.28.1
Randomly stopped allowing me to sign in unless I complied with a forced update. The previous version worked just fine for me until they "broke" it.
★★★★ Firsti Two 4/29/2026 v7.28.1
They provide information that they find convenient for themselves, lacking a lot of the information and explanation you would expect from such a big company.
★★★★ Twitch RedEye 4/29/2026 v7.28.1
horrible company!! They canceled my $20k line of credit and destroyed my credit score with only 1 supposed email as warning of "inactivity". No app notification, no follow up email, messages, etc. Only bare minimum effort taken to not screw me over completely, and zero remorse for screwing over a loyal 5 year customer with 100% on time payments. They have no loyalty to their customers and are perfectly happy destroying your finances.
★★★★ Sean Malloy 4/28/2026 v7.28.1
The app keeps logging me out in the middle of doing things when being transfered by the chat. please fix this or increase the silly timeout
★★★★ Mmmmbah 4/25/2026 v7.28.1
two factor authentication every time, even with biometric login. why bother?
★★★★ Giorgi Chkheidze 4/23/2026 v7.28.1
It is pointlessly lowering my credit score even though I never miss payments and always pay off my balance.
★★★★ Michael Mullin 4/21/2026 v7.28.1
cannot use it with my device
★★★★ Linda Thomason 4/18/2026 v7.28.1
how do I pay my bill
★★★★ Mario Alba 4/17/2026 v7.28.1
connect to my bank was a process, nearly 7 times to connect to AMEX, and it still doesn't work
★★★★ Chris 4/16/2026 v7.28.1
Waited on hold 1 hour and 40 minutes and still no one picked up and I hung up. Had to listen to the same generic 10 second dumb music clip on repeat that whole time. They can't even afford to play music for people they keep on hold forever. Glad I just transferred all my money to other savings accounts.
★★★★ Tigerroad Performance Tigerroad Auto Protection LLC 4/15/2026 v7.28.1
this card is the worst ive ever used for business and is constantly on hold, declined, and does not work with keyBank by constantly refusing payments and losing bank account information
★★★★ Chris Wood 4/13/2026 v7.27.1
the app refuses to make my cell phone a trusted device which is incredibly annoying
★★★★ Make Name Acceptable Go 4/12/2026 v6.33.0
After 31 years of having the Amex card, they decided to cancel it because we had not used it recently. According to them they sent out emails (but not mail or website warning), the first we heard of it was when we called in to see why we received a renewal card for wife and not for husband. According to them they cannot reinstate the card, so we would have to apply for a new card which wouldn't do our 800+ credit rating much good. So I think the app sucks because it's attached to idiots.🙄
★★★★ Osvaldo Laurido 4/11/2026 v7.27.1
Does not care about customers since 1982
★★★★ Ken Allgood 4/11/2026 v7.27.1
not a very user friendly design overall. Fails to effectively send notifications, and navigation is a nightmare due to poor backend integration.
★★★★ Frances Price 4/11/2026 v7.27.1
I've had the same password and now I couldn't use it or biometrics.
★★★★ Glenn A 4/10/2026
Repetitive login issues, this app is basically useless, and the customer support for it is ZERO. What was the eschelon for customer service is now worse than Capital 1.
★★★★★ Baloo 4/28/2026 v7.28.1
The app won't let me make payments.
★★★★★ Jose G. Disla Rivera 4/17/2026 v7.28.1
app was downloaded but it never shows in the app library of my Samsung android phone :(
★★★★★ Joey Fraddosio 4/13/2026 v7.28.1
System not responding. Fix your app. You want my payment? Fix this nonsense. The website is substandard too.
