AMEX Delta Gold Approved.

Called the backdoor to see the limit... 7.5k.  Same amount I got for my Sapphire before I split off some for the Freedom.  Hoping for that coveted 3xCLI in 61 days.

Re: AMEX Delta Gold Approved.

Congrats on the approval.  I would make one recommendation....  Call and upgrade to the Platinum Delta card.  The AF is around $50 more, but you get a free companion certificate every year with renewal.  My wife and I use ours every year and it saves us $400-$600 depending on where we are going.

I thought about it and I called to have it upgraded.  Strange, the call was answered by an offshored CSR (first time I've talked to an offshored AMEX CSR) and I requested to have it upgraded to Platinum.  He said I'd have to wait to get the card, activate it, and then request and upgrade.

 

My credit profile is TU: 732 EX: 740 EQ: 701

Re: AMEX Delta Gold Approved.

Congrats 

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?
