Weird and wonderful client requests that have been fulfilled - include:
1. A Cardmember called American Express after becoming stranded in the Sahara desert. Centurion organised for the Moroccan army to airlift the couple to safety.
2. A Cardmember called to request ten rare African tree frogs which had to be a specific colour green for his daughter’s birthday. A member of the Centurion team located a pet shop in London that stocked the frogs and delivered them in time for the party.
3. A Cardmember desperate for a rare Hermes Birkin bag worth £100,000 asked American Express to find her one. American Express is working with Harrods to locate the bag in Europe.
4. Finding a bottle of 40 year old Don Perignon champagne for a Cardmember’s 40th wedding anniversary, the same vintage as they made their first toast with.
5. Arranging for a plane to fly over Victoria Falls trailing a banner saying “will you marry me?” for a Cardmember who wanted to propose to his girlfriend in style.
The service includes:
• 24/7, 365 days a year concierge service with a dedicated team of specialists that can handle virtually any request imaginable.
• Entertainment/Lifestyle – Centurion has acquired a reputation for personal, ‘do anything’ concierge service, at hand every day to arrange everything from employing a private chef to orchestrating a bespoke expedition to the North Pole.
• Travel – Cardmembers benefit from Centurion’s global relationships with the world’s best airlines to offer lounge access and VIP services at International airports - being met off the plane on arrival, fast tracked through immigration, baggage collected and taken to a waiting limousine.

Apparently, Centurion is available by invitation only, it is not simply a case of applying for the card based on how much you earn! Exclusive or what....
