Show Notes
American Express UK is ending enhanced welcome bonuses on January 13th, 2026, and the difference is massive. The Amex Platinum referral offer drops from 85,000 points plus £250 travel credit down to just 50,000 points, while the Gold Card offer plummets from 45,000 points to 20,000. We break down exactly what's available, who's eligible (including important 24-month rules and loopholes), and whether these cards are worth the annual fees. Plus, there's another deadline you need to know about: the enhanced Barclaycard Avios Plus offer ends January 15th.
