The Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) has announced that it will now accept donations
via telephone and Web from American Express card holders.
Previous emergency appeals
by the DEC have not accepted AMEX donations. The new development was announced on
the front page of the DEC Web site today.

The DEC Tsunami Earthquake appeal now accepts nine different types of credit or 
debit card.
