Yep... saw this yesterday so now I have no use for my Amex. Called into Amex this morning to cancel the card as I don't want to pay the fee - they offered me 7000 aeroplan points to stay, but I would still have to pay the $120. At 1.7c per point, I'm debating on it I'm such a sucker

I've never had an Amex card due to too many places not accepting it. So no fucks given lol Really? I've never really noticed an issue with stores not accepting Amex. Loblaws/Superstore is really the only one that stands out. Edit: I guess my response was kind of pointless as you actually don't know first hand who doesn't take Amex. Nevermind. Carry on
You can't say Amex is accepted everywhere can you? Visa and MB are widely accepted. Don't be so bitter because Costco found their card useless too lol

I have that platinum Amex Costco membership card. Free with costco membership.
I was a costco a few days ago with a buddy ( he didn't have a membership). The cashier didn't let my buddy pay and said a policy change that only members can pay now? Anyone heard of this?

I think I've answered this already.

But to answer your question directly, no my Amex is not accepted everywhere. But neither is my Visa. I'm not sure what you're driving at. And I'm far from bitter about the whole Costco/Amex thing. If you read a little further up, I called Amex to cancel earlier today.

ok, so then why did this happen?

I've gone with my wife and I am not a member, they wouldn't let me pay.

Interesting - I checked out the 6 plus in person. Too big for a normal phone unless you need a tablet functionality for work and don't want multiple devices.
I was planning on getting one too - best buy heartland has 128gb iphone 6 in all colours but Rogers wants you to have a 125 dollar plan if you want to keep 6gb data (stupid). I said fuck it and ordered from apple unlocked. Will be here in 7 days and I keep my plan which is half price from the new one and the phone will sell no problem when I upgrade next time.

The past 6 years i've brought people in and they have paid for their stuff no problem.
I know costco gift cards you can be a non-member and use it. You just don't get the deals and current sale discount with the gift cards.
