There are so many of these threads. If you need one, then you dont need to ask the question as it isn't an option whether you get one or not.
If it is an option, then wait!

I wasn't aware AMEX was pulling out of the European market.Just double checked, since amex is being phased out on my side of the pond
MC give me 1 year extended warranty, 90 day price match, 90 day insurance (theft, breakage, etc.).
There are limits though, but all in all, it's great customer protection.
Maybe I should switch my Visa for a MC
As for MC, that's the primary card I use. Quite decent, but it's also an older account. The terms may be different than a new one.

It's not so much pulling out as it is getting pushed out.
Most card terminals don't do AMEX -- in fact, the only place I've seen the AMEX logo recently was in the hospital, though I do know that most upscale restaurants still take it if pressed.
Hopefully they'll do a push soon to get back properly in the market, but it means lower purchase fees (making sellers happy, lowering AMEX's income).
I don't get the time to follow European news/markets/... nearly as much as I'd like. Not enough time.
