With you not looking what is typed! Imagine chaos if it said £13000 and you clicked pay.

Re: Card payment on mc
I had an AMEX for a while, but found it a bit useless as so many places didnt take them.
In the end it finished up just being on my Paypal account, until I got around to dumping it.

They've loosened up on commission and nearly all of the places infest take AMEX. We travel a lot and the points all go towards a later travel. It's an excellent card. Get's us into the top lounges too.

We have BA Amex cards, which we use for Avios points (airmiles, 1.5 points for ever £1 spend), and we also get free Companion tickets (you just pay taxes, no fares) after a certain annual spend.
We also have a Barclaycard Avios card (for when places don’t take Amex) where we get 1 point for every £1 spend.
