How long ago was your experience?
I also don't like that they change your account number when you upgrade. When going from gold to plat, we had to notify any hotels w/ guaranteed reservations. As well as any companies that autobilled Amex gold. They actually said they would do this if we gave them a list of companies. It didn't go well.
