Amex just reported my first statement's balances... a week after first statement cut. EX showed full PRG balance and noting 1 month term and zero balance for the revolver (i didn't use it the first month).
Strange but my fico score didn't budge at all. Remained at 730?
So, last week i had 4 INQ, 6 months credit history and two $500 cards, one of which is secure. Honestly, I would have expected a bump in my score with adding a $2k revolver. My util was super low as it is. (2-5%).
My secured BofA doesn't graduate until the spring. Probably no sense asking for early graduation?
Wondering if i should call Cap One to see if they can bump me. I have the $500 limit Quicksilver ($39 AF) MasterCard....
My 3rd statement just cut and my PRG still hasn't reported to any of the bureaus. Frustrating as I'm hoping that the backdating will give me a nice little bump.
I opened my Amex BCE on 12/12/13, first statement closed on 1/10/14, reported to credit bureau on 01/18/2014.
Backdated cards are not going to trigger new account alerts.
Opened BCE last week of October. Still not reporting. Did request and got approved for 3X CLI today. Initial 2k line increased to 6K. Also got a nice $150 rewards bonud that I wasn't expecting.
UPDATE: My Delta Gold Reported today, got an alert from EX/EQ and logged on to confirm. It did report Dec/Jan so I'm sure to those who are anxiously waiting, it'll be reported soon. My AMEX Green still no signs of reporting.
At first, I don't think so.
But now I am seriously suspect that it might be the case ...
