Amex Recon

[Jayb5635]

Hey guys, so I faxed in a copy of my credit report on Friday for reconsideration on my blue cash preferred application. The rep told me to call back on Tuesday to check that the Media team received it. Is 48 hours the norm for how long it takes them to get to the faxed documents ???

Yes it takes time for some reason....Strange but hey it's the Amex way 

You are aware that they will most likely do another HP?

Yeah, I'm aware lol. Hopefully it works out. They denied me off their last soft pull around the end of last month and my ex fico was I believe 659 due to a bunch of high balances reporting. I've since paid everything off and my ex fico currently sits at 690.

Thank man !!! I mean, if amex can approve me for the blue cash everyday last March with a 678 ex fico, SURELY they can find it in their hearts to approve me for the blue cash preferred with a 690 fico lol.

I hate that its 2014 and big companies still use fax machines.

well faxing documents over still beats sending it via physical mail

Haha agreed.  To follow up, I called today.  The rep put me hold roughly 10 minutes, then came back and said it took them a bit to find the documents I faxed over.  She said they would get back to me with a decision.  Anyway, I checked the status of the application and it changed to in process.

Best of luck to you.  Let us know when you find out something! Hope it's good news!

Thanks, I appreciate that.  I will definitely report back.
