No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
So i have 3 Amex accounts that were backdated when i was added as an AU on dads business delta gold. I was a joint account holder on the Optima back in the 90's when you could apply for such card. Well didnt know exactly what year that account was open but i knew it had to be between 1994-1998. So i contacted AMEX via secure/chat message and told them about having the optima account a while back and wanted to see if they were kind enough to locate the account so they could change the "since member date". Well after a few minutes on hold...BAAAM!!! they found out i had been an Amex cardholder since 1995!!!! They said new cards are on the way and thanked me for being a cardholder since 1995! That will sure help my AAOA! After a few old accounts fell off i went down to just below 3 years of AAOA. So hopefully having 3 accounts backdated to 1995 instead of 2011 will sure help!
Very Nice Congrats!

AFAIK regular statement update. No different than a CLI change.

thanks rev! thats what i would have figured also. Too bad 2 of the cards just updated on my report a couple of days ago while the other will be on the 28th. Keeping fingers crossed it updates the year by then.
Good job! Congrats!
