FWIW, there was a 0.3% spread for my CSR once the transaction in question posted compared to xe.com's rates. The jury's still out on the charge I put on my Diners Club MC the other day but the pending transaction was basically spot on rate-wise. No idea yet about AmEx.
USD/GBP on Amex is pretty good (On par with Visa, sometimes worse than MC). Some other currencies on Amex are questionable though.
