Amex rates for shops are extortionate which is why most small retailers refuse to accept them.. and probably why you can get good cashback deals. I only ever use my Amex with large retailers for this reason
I get Amex refused all the time. How does this £5 deal work. Apart from few big retailers no one takes Amex.

Times are changing. They have reduced rates and have had a big push into small businesses to expand. I was actually surprised at the amount near me that accepted it and are on shop small. Then you get big US chains such as Subway NOT accepting which is odd.
