Well whaddaya know? I just did what you said, and it shows that I'm preapproved for either the gold or platinum Delta Sky Miles! I'm not going to go for it, though. When I do fly, I fly JetBlue. I don't need the inq or an Amex revolver right now. But, it feels really good to see that they like me. Smiley Happy

And I logged back in to take another look, and the preapproval is gone.    ?????

Re: Amex and their teasers

Thats the way it's been with me when I have tried but every time it tells me that they are updating the system or my cvv number doesn't match what's on file I think they are sitting around watching it happen just to get a laugh......... who knows

Re: Amex and their teasers

I have the option to upgrade to the platinum delta or delta reserve

 

It's my understanding that you can't do that until you pay your first annual fee though. Something about not being able to change the annual fee on a new account or something
