Go to application status and you should see whether you are approved, declined, or its in pending status. Google American Express application status.

Or you can call in.

Fico EQ is 668, Fako TU in CK is 663, fako EX is 692. All my cards are paid off but one of them didnt report yet which is the best buy at 200 dollars. So util % was around 30 percent. No baddies or late payments. 1 year credit history, AAoA is 7 months.

Where do you see the limit? It doesn't allow me to see anything it just tells me I have to put my credit card number in to access or see anything.
