American Express Membership Rewards - Cashing a personal check privileges

Will a foreign Amex office permit writing personal check and getting either cash (local currency) and/or t-checks? I called Amex and no one could give me answer....decades ago, for gold card, $5000/month limit.

Limit is probably higher for Gold or Platinum, but I did not look.

Many thanks. I went to my account benefits, did a search and found 4 locations in Bangkok. But none of them can confirm this service on the website. And nothing regarding limits, etc.

I have emailed them...hope they respond.

emergency cheque cashing for the International USD/EUR Centurion is limited to $10,000 / €10,000 every 21 days.

Cash? What is Cash? Do you mean coin? Travlers checks? How do I get membership reward points for cashing a check;) Sorry just a little humour
