What's the point of having a corporate AMEX if you have to pay the bill yourself first?
(show of hands everyone, who has a corporate AMEX, not discover, visa or mc, but an AMEX, that does not get paid directly from your company?) Sounds more like a personal card at that point. Sure, if you have bad credit and/or are a foreign worker, you may not qualify for a personal CC and your company has to "sponsor" your credit card, but this is probably an extreme example.

I work for a rather large fortune 10 company. We get the bill sent to us but they pay the bill when we fill out our expense reports. We used to have to pay the Corp AMEX charges ourselves. They want us to justify the charages and it has to be approved before the bill is paid.
