I'm really excited and wanted to share! I was approved for Amex Gold back in January backdated to 1/1992! Decided to app for Amex revolver and got approved! A bit suprised, but excited. Any thoughts on the plain Amex Blue?
Get that baby backdated as well!
Congratulations!
Don't know alot about the Blue - my mother has had one for years, but I don't know the details re: rewards, BT, etc.
I would assume it would automatically backdate right? My Gold was automatically backdated.

Yes, assuming that your online member since date shows 1992 then yes it will be backdated automatically.
It sure does. Also, will the new card automatically show up under my current Amex online profile?

Cool ! You're good to go then. Once you receive the card you will activate it online and it will be added to your profile.
@jrr....if you don't mind telling us, what were your scores?
Honestly, I haven't looked in a couple months, but my EX FICO is around 690. I still have like 6 baddies that are due to fall off between June and December of this year. I currently have: Wells Fargo CC with 3k CL, BofA Cash Rewards with a 1.5k CL, Amex PR Gold, Chase Slate with a 400 CL.
Also, I have 2 Cap1 credit cards with $750 CL on each one and a Merrick Bank CC with a 1k CL. Thinking of closing Cap1 cards and Merrick. Any thoughts?
