My congrats on the backdating, hehe
It takes a while for Amex to report new cards. Mine reported when the first statement cut, but others have said that it didn't report until 2nd stmt. If you have a CMS (USAA offers a daily 3-in-1 pull w/daily monitoring of all 3 for $12.25 a month), then you can find out when the new accts report. Also, instead of buying a FICO, you might be better off getting the Score Watch (either from here or from EQ), since it's less than buying a single score.
