The Centurion sounds like more of a rip-off everyday.

For $1000, you'd expect "better" payment terms than other cards--like perhaps 60 days to pay like Diners Club?.....After all, Centurion users "supposed" be to high flying world travelers--which means they're not at home all the time to anxiously await paying a bill that's due in a couple of days!

Along these lines, I also gave up on my Platinum because I grew to learn that it's also a waste of money.
