Question
More specifically does anyone currently have one of these cards? Either the Visa or American Express and do you have the Elite card? Does anyone have any experience with the rewards program and what do you think? What benefits have you found useful and which ones are not? Have you used the companion ticket or the lounge access and what were your costs? What are you overall thoughts about this card?
Answer
Also, does anyone have photo/image of the card they are willing to share?

No I didn't see the post. Yes I can look up the information. Yes I do have the information. Yes I do have a picture of the card. BUT, that does not tell me the real world experiences of the card. Every programs marketing hypes up their program and in real world trials some things are not created equal or shall I say, not exactly like you expected.
