Hi guys,

Anyone knows how to get the AMEX Platinum Card without the need to pay the annual fee of $321?

But he would have to pay platinum charge card fees which is about 1.4k more

If you spend enough, they would waive it, probably not for the first year.

Still entitled for the 1 night stay at swissotel without paying for the annual fee?

Unlikely. Vouchers are mailed after payment of annual fees

No.. Anyway for those with 1712, they will get reserve instead of 321

Agreed. The returns from 1712 are definitely worth it. Complimentary upgrades to hotel / car rental loyalty programme too.

senseless recommendations from some people.

there's a rule that all amex card holders, especially new ones, can only hold 3 cards with them, barring corporate cards.

most optimized manner would be the charge + reserve + either cashback or krisflyer blue(then upgrade to ascend for more miles).

no idea why would one hold the normal platinum card if you hold the charge card.

get the reserve, for the frasers hospitality vouchers and the ba xian ones. the rest are worthless under this card. churn for sign up bonus.

ascend/cashback for churn + sign up bonus and hilton vouchers.

charge card vouchers are self explanatory.

most of them just induce u to spend more though. quite unnecessary. and the events are meh to me.
