That is a fake name if I've ever heard one, especially considering he was Indian and the call center was in India.
+1 here. Back in the day when I had a cap1 card and this lady on the phone was so sure that her name is Tracy. Sure Sure Sure... They make so much money in the US so let the cust reps be in the US and stop outsourcing them.

Why do I love Amex ?
Simple, I have a Credit Card issued in the US and when I call I have an American on the phone talking to me from a callcenter somewhere in the US. I just prefer it this way.
