AMEX better customer support is because of its all paid card offerings & small customer base (~15 lakh)? Also, until recently the cards were reserved only for employed (+ limited serviceable cities/towns)

Citi too belongs to the same league with ~15 lakh customers and they're infamous for rejecting credit cards for various reasons (self employed, too many credit cards & ..)

On the other hand: HDFC, SBI Card, Axis & ICICI got way more number of customers (ICICI Apay and FK Axis alone got a customer base of 20/30 lakh each). With increasing customer case (especially via free cards) i believe changes in chargeback / support policies are inevitable

AFAIK it is the banks / cc issuers behind these chargeback polices and they're largely similar across all prominent options (except for may be the timeline/deadline for raising disputes) and unless you got a very convincing argument they tend to side with the merchants

is it like BSNL offering to far reaching village and thus compromise on customer support?
and more of a usage pattern i never paid for amex membership 1.5 L spend/month
amex is also not double standerd wrt wallet recharge
reward redemption is free with amazon/taj vouchers
take paid /premiun cards of HDFC, SBI Card, Axis & ICICI and see if customer care improves 
if u have strong case u will win i think , i filed chargeback of 12k with sbi and won

More like Jio/Airtel, plan price/benefit revision (+ network deterioration via congestion) with the increase in subscriber base
With premium cards, we might offer premium support but the banking/chargeback policies remain same for all the cards? Personally i am using Ola SBI credit card for ~3 years and for this entire duration (until Nov 22*) the card gave me 7% cashback for olamoney wallet loads. From Oct 2021 they removed 10x RP with a popular card SimplyClick Then they launched/announced cashback card on Sep 1 last year, everyone was after it (Got 10k/20k cashback just via Uber loads) and then they were forced to make sudden changes to the RP/Cashback during sale for all the cards. Ideally they should've notified users a month before the sale start but they rushed it because of excess exploitation and created a big mess. Even if AMEX or Citi got one such card with very attractive reward system the onboarding process is complicated.

And yes my experience with chargebacks is similar (ICICI and SBI)

i dont think credit card customer care differ by cards subscriber ,u gettting same tone of  customer support if its SBI OLA or SBI elite  ,and it doesnt matter how many subscriber they add 
and whats 'premium support '?, i m happy if they just reply to my email and i have pdf of email conversation even SBI does it well ,AMEX have it 24x7 chat support 
also SBI will adjust it policy 10 times in a year while amex doesnt do that
