I don't. The caps on merchant/interchange fees mean credit card spend isn't particularly lucrative in the UK, especially compared to the US.

You'll note that they are only going to offer TPs on the Premium Plus Amex. That one has an annual fee of £300. And even then they're capping the TPs at 2,500.
