That's why I called - to get that shut off. My post was not to "ward other off" from anything - just letting people know how to stop the flow of junk mail from Amex.

All credit card companies do those things you chose to opt out of with Amex. You should have asked the Rep to clarify item #5, and you'd learn that it's nothting new, and other companies have been doing this stuff for years. Not saying it's right or wrong, it's simply not all that unusual, but to post a statement like this to ward others off from keeping their Amex account or to get an Amex account isn't right either.

They do share your credit history with one another especially the big ones. Well, that is what credit card companys do.
