Another Great AMEX Product
I've had an American Express Card for about 10 years now. Absolutely love it, always a great experience. So when I found out AMEX was offering a bank account, I was excited to check it out.
There's nothing that's particularly revolutionary about the account - although I would argue that's pretty hard to achieve with a savings account - but some of the small details line up well with what I would expect from AMEX.
In particular, their $250k/day transfer limit to/from the account via ACH. Keeping with their "no limits" credit card approach, AMEX isn't going to play money transfer games with me - I transfer what I want, when I want. Simple, functional, powerful. Little details like this, along with a competitive interest rate will keep me with the AMEX brand for as long as they'll have me.
