Oh boy...I'm in Trouble. AMEX(2) Approved.

::edited for inserting pic::

 

Received a mail offer from AMEX yesterday for the first time.  I stared at it for a looong time......did not app. 

 

Why?  because i'm afraid of the alligators & the ERTs.  I was literally Woosaaahhing the whole day. 

 

After dinner.  More wooosaaahh.  About to shred the mail.  Damn it my fingers!!!  Went & applied for the Green.  Received the pending review msg.  At this point, I'm really nervous- not because of the pending review msgs...but I knew that Lexi, MJ, Focused, Irisa, and others would be all on my behind for this alerting the whole community (honest truth here- you guys really have me in check! lol). 

 

This morning, i received an email-  CONGRATULATIONS, YOU ARE NOW A MEMBER OF AMERICAN EXPRESS!!  I literally pee'd in my pants just a lil'.  Immediately went online & apped for Delta.  Instant approval at 2k!!

 

I'm sorry I've jumped the fence....but now my wallet is complete.  All my reports are frozen at this point, i don't need or want anymore cards in my wallet.  I'll unfreeze my report next year when i PC the Green to PRG & Delta Gold to Platinum. 

 

For those that may wanna know why i'm on the watchlist is because of this: From July of this year, i did an experiment...called app for AMEX until they approve me. I finally won today.

 

 

Thanks everyone.  Now i need to hide.....somewhere before the Crew arrives.

There's not a hole, place, valley, planet, mountain far or deep enough for you to hide Lol

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?
