I have not received any letter from AmEx advising that this applies to my UK-issued International Dollar Card. Does anyone know?

As mia stated, the requirement to charge travel on the relevant AmEx card used to exist. I remember being pleased when it changed. My husband's $30,000+ emergency appendectomy was covered 100% based on this card, and we had charged our airline tickets to my US-issued Centurion card.

I wonder also how they will define what constitutes a relevant AmEx card for charging travel costs. For example, will charges to a US- based AmEx card be sufficient for coverage under the UK-issued AmEx with the medical and travel insurance.

The 90-day maximum trip length is also a disappointment.
