Interesting...

It must have been on mine, too, but I didn't see it.

Well, it's $75 to pay for the membership rewards program on a green (corporate) card, so essentially I just lost a $75 benefit--Platinum isn't really worth it to me in other ways.

I'm cancelling Platinum (up for renewal in Feb. anyway) and trying Gold Rewards for this year--I guess if I don't get much benefit from that by next year at this time, I'll just go with the plain ol' $75 membership rewards for the corporate card. Sucks that they did this.

This change applies to CCs enrolled in MR before that date on the next anniversary of such a CC's enrollment date that occurs on or after that date.

"Accordingly:
Sentence 3, paragraph 1 of the Annual Fees section of the T&Cs is changing to read: ''The annual fee to enroll a Corporate Card is $75.'' The words ''$75 annual fee for each Corporate Card and an additional'' are being deleted from sentence 4, paragraph 1.

"Language in parentheses in sentence 3, paragraph 2 of the Annual Fees section of the T&Cs is changing to read: ''(other than the $75 annual fee for Corporate Cards linked to an MR account with other enrolled charge
cards)''.
