我在想这会不会预示着amex要crack down existing cardmember 刷 incognito的高开卡
“Years back, when Small Business Saturday was but a newly-minted offering providing us all $10 off $10 for each of our cards, I stopped by a small business and picked out a small item for purchase.
The only employee at the store was its owner. I asked if I could pay for my purchase in separate transactions, in $10 increments. He looked at me quizzically and asked why. I explained. He then went on a mini-rant that can basically be summed up in these two words: “Fuck Amex.”
He asked how many cards, I had, and I told him, which was 29. He then encouraged me to pick out more items from his store, and he would swipe all of my cards that day. I could see the glee appear across his face with every swipe, knowing that Amex was at least getting a little bit fucked every time.
The tenderness of this memory still brings a tear to my eye.
