With $300 in travel refund it’s more like $250.
It is worth $250 over other cards? It definitely was for me pre-2019. The points add up fast if you travel for work.
It’s no longer a “great” card. But there isn’t a good competitor.

The main issue with the Platinum is that it doesn't accrue points as fast as it doesn't have spending categories and it doesn't have as many transfer partners. There are ways to get a bunch of points though, its just different.
The varying perks are worthwhile and rotate a lot. Love the statement credits, $200 Uber credits and other things.
I think its worth it
Amex also only does soft-pulls, which to me is more valuable than any hard pull
Also, the rewards points can be redeemed for statement credit with the same 50% travel bonus on this “pay you back” thing against grocery and restaurant purchases
