Re: AMEX Zync internal limit

They denied me for $1,000 within a month after recieving my card, I have only used it slightly, not really pushing a whole lot through it, just day to day stuff. I checked just now and I'm at $3000. I'm fine with that :smileylol:

I checked Spending ability at 2k when I first got the card... Approved.

Checked it at 3k in March, Approved

Checked it at 5k in April, Approved.

Will check it again if/when I plan on spending more than 5k through the card.

Re: AMEX Zync internal limit

i dont plan on spending more the $300 a month now since i have boa and freedom. better rewards. but the NPSL looks good to lenders and may help me get better limits. plus amex has a diffrent level of stuff like a lounge at malls by me

Re: AMEX Zync internal limit

My first Zync purchase was airline tickets from US to Israel $1200. It was approved without an issue. I have never been declined making purchses up to $4k, of course always PIf at months end.

 

Out of curiousity a few days ago I used the button to check if I would be approved on $10k, and it was approved. Not sure what my ceiling is, but it seems to be higher than I would ever need! I do use the card monthly, with an avg of $1k - $2k. Had it since 2010
