Useful Memo data no longer downloaded after American Express (AmEx) converted to EWC+

For decades, the American Express (AmEx) download contained useful information in the "memo" field: merchant phone number, airline ticket number, etc.

Recently, when AmEx "upgraded" from Direct Connect to EWC+, all of this information is no longer transmitted. Instead, the memo field in each transaction just has a blacked-out version of the credit card number (e.g., xxxx-xxxxxx-x1234). This, obviously, is the same for each transaction and is just a waste of space that adds no value.

Is there any way to get the old, useful memo data back?

    In my opinion, likely not. And you no longer get pdfs of sytatements as well. That may be with ALL EWC accounts, but too soon for me to be sure of that.
