I also received information in the mail regarding Stratus Rewards through my company's affiliation with Sony. In my search for credible third party information regarding the company, I came across this website. Please excuse me as I have never participated in a chat room before. In my opinion though, and after spending the better part of my morning on the phone with their customer service, it sounds a hell of alot better then the Black American Express card. I use to be a Centurian member, but left because I felt it to be a waste of my money. I will continue my search for information regarding the Stratus company however, you may want to take a better look into those beneifits... They seem to be more beneficial and in line with my lifestyle than does Amex.
