90% of the time when I try to switch the card to my Visa at check-out and get the answer "not possible Sir, you are on a rate that requires payment by Amex".

but they dont want to switch the card. i had a problem one time, we made a booking with centurion, i had to check out and my friend checked out later with his visa. they made a big deal that they only would accept amex but than he told them, take visa or have nothing, they finally accepted the visa without penalty.

it was dump on my side that i forget to leave him my card that time, but well things happen.
