I do not believe this AMEX CS knows what he's talking about.
Dear XXX,

I certainly appreciate your support for the Cathay Pacific group and
recognise the fact that you have flown the requisite miles necessary in
order to obtain extra privileges to be one of our Gold Club members.
American Express's offering is very targeted to selected Centurion
cardholders, and having been given a Marco Polo Club card, they would
then be expected to make up the mileage for renewal.

Kind regards,
Linda Sim
