Costco/Amex Breakup
Since a lot of you are Costco shoppers I thought this might be of interest:

I have the JetBlue Amex that is also going away, but it's not my primary card so we'll see how this all shakes out.

Re: Costco/Amex Breakup
I heard about this.
We have the Amex card too via Costco. It's the only reason we have it (Costco membership and for paying there and not having to write checks). 3% back on gas. 2% back on restaurants. 1% back on everything else.
We need to keep our Costco membership, though.
Wouldn't mind having one less CC, but with this relationship going away, Amex will probably lose us as customers and we'll go with whatever CC CostCo does end up with.
We've had this Amex for about 24 months. It won't break our credit if we close it. I'm just not going to keep it open if it no longer applies to my Costco membership.
At the same time, AMEX offered us a new version of their card as well (no longer linked to Costco), which we were going to just ignore/close but it's actually offering us some sweet deals right now so we've activated it and will use it for points and cash back on some upcoming home reno purchases. I always thought I would do away with AMEX if I didn't need it for Costco but I'm reconsidering for the time being (and honestly, their customer service has been amaaaaazing).
