- How to Report a Death to American Express
Sadly, we are unable to advise American Express of a death at the moment but please see our guidelines below to help you contact them. We can help you notify hundreds of other companies; Life Ledger provides a free service where you can inform multiple companies about a death simply and securely from one place.
