Bypass the automated IVR bot by using the "Representative" trick. When the automated voice asks "How can I help you?", say "Representative" clearly. The system will ask you a second time; repeat "Representative" and then press 0 followed by #. When prompted for your card or account number, simply press 0 again to be dropped straight into a live agent's queue. Alternatively, if you already have the Amex Mobile App, utilizing the built-in Live Chat option often connects you to a human agent within 2 minutes without having to verify your account info out loud.
