I have been through several of your articles but can’t find the ones on “AMEX targeting the uniformed”. I am sure military members would be very interested in this, can you tell us which article you are talking about?
Thanks,
It’s “the uninformed” not uniformed. 🙂
Oh btw the post the “uniformed” comment was a reference to Marks post at the end of the credit card column “don’t fall for Amex’s games”
Hey Glenn, I just wanted to let you know that your comment inspired me to do a guide in the next few weeks about which banks offer benefits to our awesome military and their families. Thanks for the great idea!
