AMEX BCE approval!

tsu1112 · ‎02-01-2014

I am very excited about my BCE approval so I can take advantage of my long history with AMEX. I was approved for my first green card when I was 18 in 1987. I knew nothing of credit at the time and used the card for a couple of years and then just stopped using it until 2010. At that time I had forgotten I had previously had the card and reapplied for a green card and was approved. It was backdated to 1987. In 2011 I upgraded it to a gold card with the same member date of 1987. Well, on Monday I decided to apply for the BCE and was approved online. I received the card yesterday and was shocked with a 10K limit. So now I have two AMEX cards with dates of 1987. in case you are wondering my EX score was a 710. Have a great day.

Congrats!!!!! I am still wondering about my backdating...I also had a green card in college, so I wonder if they will automatically back date me or if I will have to ask.

I never asked about the backdating on mine but if they didn't I would certainly remind them. Good luck to you.

Congrats and welcome to the Amex family

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?
