That's how AMEX shut us our corporate credit card account overnight. We launched a new shopping cart and tested it live in production with our own AMEX card. Mind you that we used that card for over $250k a month (never a late payment) and this was a $99 charge that we simply forgot to refund.

No appeal process, nothing. Caused significant short term cash flow issues. So be very careful using your own card.

AMEX used to have major issues with consumers trying to "pay" themselves — the Singapore version put me in financial review for a PayPal transaction that I had accidentally paid to the wrong address, and was subsequently cancelled and refunded — which to AMEX looked like I was trying to "pay" myself.

I don't know if that's still the case, but these days I'm wary about using AMEX on any sort of money transfer service.
