AMEX Hilton HHonors Approved $9,500 CL

Since it's Jan, for max backdating purposes, I decided to apply for the AMEX HHH and was approved! Adding another 14.6 years of age to my profile :smileyhappy:

The funny thing is that AMEX has denied my two requests for CLI on the BCE, so I'm curious to know what limit they will set with this one, probably another $1,000. But that's ok, because the main goal was the backdating.

 

EDIT:

Just received my card today, $9,500 CL!!

I'm not sure why they won't CLI my BCP that is at a $1,000 CL, but they will approve me for this one at a much higher CL lol. I'm not complaining though :smileyvery-happy:

WHOOO!!! THATS AWESOME I LUV READING THESE PRIME APPROVALS THATS AWESOME. ANYWAY FOR FUTURE REFERENCE WHICH ONE IS BETTER HILTON FROM AMEX OR HITLON BY CITI??

Im a 18 yr old in high school with no annual income that loves learning new things about credit. I pulled my FIRST Experian Score from Quizzle.com (on 2-9-13). Quizzle.com was the only site that was able to find my credit report, the rest required more information in order to do so since I lack public records. I'll update on the cards I am currently as an AU because some haven't reported yet. I don't own any cards under my name since I don't have an annual income to include when applying. Im super EXCITED!! MyFico.com is awesome!!!
