haha... maybe you can go to your dad's room see his wallet got the black card or not while he is talking shower... lol!

haha i spoke to my dad about it. he still denies it, i said its kinda obvious with him getting the centurion magazines every now and then, luggage tags and even the centurion guide booklet. he said they "made an error" and thought he is centurion cardholder by mistake. he brushes it off by saying even if he is he cant sup any black cards to family members except for 1 person. he said amex uk's centurion package includes 1 black additional card to separate personal frm business expenses, 1 black supplementary card and 3 more supplementary cards either in green, gold or platinum. so he said only 1 supp can have black card the other 3 must settle for lower cards. in his case ive a feeling the 1 black supp card he can give he gives to my mom. so he said, if you want black card, you have to earn it yourself! haha...

Haha... my father used to said the same thing to me when i was a child and wanted to have sup card from him...."you want a card, you have to study hard and earn it yourself to get it" lol... every father is the same er..tongue.gif

Frankly speaking, for us Malaysian, no matter how much we spend or earn the most we can get from AMEX is platinum..they simply dont have black card here.. unless you able to setup an Amex account in Singapore.. that maybe got a chance to get invited if you really a HUDE spender! lol...

mrcloud9, i believe you have used your AMEX card in london before right? hows the conversion charges like when you receive the statement? worth to use the card in oversea?
