GetHuman-mikelyg's review of American Express customer service
GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's American Express customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
GetHuman-mikelyg: Impossible. I had a simple question. I was asked for my account information numerous times. I usually do not mind dealing with Phillipine call centers but the employees do not understand, have no authority, and you cannot get ahold of a supervisor. It drives me nuts when i hear the mantra "I understand" when they have no idea
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting American Express. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a American Express problem?
GetHuman-mikelyg: I'd give them a two out of five for ease of finding your way to help.
GetHuman: What about quality of communication. How would you rate that on a 1 to 5 scale?
GetHuman-mikelyg: I'd give them a one out of five on communication.
GetHuman: And what about American Express's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
GetHuman-mikelyg: For that I would say four out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other American Express customers?
GetHuman-mikelyg: Call them early in the day or late. Don't forget any personal or account information you might need for American Express to know who you are.
