https://www.financialexpress.com/money/zero-annual-fee-on-american-express-gold-credit-card-discontinued-check-reward-points/2109727/
Is this true does the Amex Gold CC mean MRCC and what does it mean fro people like me who got it under the 20Lac+ ITR offer.?
Please verify Ajay.
@Aman Singh, Amex Gold Credit Card is a different card, it was only issued as a companion card, never as a card on its own.
Thx Ajay, live long and prosper.
