So, my bank seems to be more helpful than stupid AmEx. I talked to a rep this morning and filed paperwork to dispute the $1,500 payment. According to the bank, I should have the money back in my checking acount in 3-5 business days.

I hope that you get your money back very, very soon!! And isn’t it awful that you have to do all of that to get YOUR money back!! I mean, really?
