I know you don't want to hear this and you're going to hate me for being so honest, but the solution to your issue is in a comment you made... "I don't have time to read the fine print." My solution? You HAVE to read the fine print. I too have an AMEX card, and, when you enroll in the Auto Insurance (or when you get your card), the policy really does state that things like SUVs, Luxury cars, Certain Specialty cars and a few more (I forget the details right now) are NOT covered by the policy, usually only standard, small, or compact sedans. I also think the policy doesn't cover you in certain countries...don't remember what they are. My point, even if you don't have time to read the fine print, YOU HAVE TOO. This situation, if nothing else, is proof of that. As hard as I know this is to hear, ignorance of the rules really is no excuse and cancelling your card with them doesn't change that responsibility.
