Just got my CSR. No fancy packaging but metal card (heard some people got a plastic card...not that it matters).

The $300 travel credit is cool but I wish you could pick what its used on. Its used up alot on my parking when I charge it on my card in and out of garages.




Not sure why you care which one you get refunded on. You get $300 either way


Looking into the Priority Pass lounges, seems like a lot of lounges give you reduced service for being a PP entrant. If so, that value just went to

PIMP! How'd you get so fast? I read somewhere that it did no good to ask for expedited. I applied today and was approved, hoping to get before my $3300 car insurance is due Sept. 4th.


Both mine, and my wife's arrived via UPS 2 days after approval.

Any others getting their replacement metal cards yet? my wife ended up getting the plastic one and was curious if they started shipping the metal versions or if the shortage was still ongoing.

Probably could call and have them send you one ahead of typical schedule


In my experience, they pick up fast and easy to do just on commute to work. The CSRs are probably sick of me calling about random stuff

I've had mine for awhile. I'm just worried that PP gives you a "junior membership" type experience at certain lounges.

Was reading about both lounges in DC aren't open to PP members during certain hours

I'll have to check again with the drunk AMEX rep. Hang on, I think I still have her number.

Where is this story about the drunk AmEx rep? I've seen a couple different references to it. Think I missed that one.

I've had PP for a while through Amex, I rarely even find a place to use it. I usually don't travel alone either so paying the extra fee for guests is not worth it.

Yeah, PP lounges usually in international terminals. AmEx PP access sucks anyway as you have to pay. The PP membership that comes with Citi allows you + 3 guests. I think with CSR is unlimited.

CSR gets you free guests so it was very attractive for when I travel with the SO

Individual lounges can place restrictions on PP access for guests into their lounges

That is what I'm seeing. If you aren't flying internationally, can you even use the lounge or even get to it?

Sure, if the terminals are connected and you don't have to go through security
