Re: Going to apply for AMEX right now! HELP!

Um. I called and did all that and the automated machine tried transfering me to an agent but the office was closed. I'm so confused now. My App Status online says I'm approved but I never got any email from Amex, an Amex CSR said they'd call me when a decision was made (he hadn't called), and now the automated application status tried transfering me to an agent.

 

I'M APPROVED RIGHT? Ug, the app status page says I am Smiley Sad I'll call tomorrow..

Creditballer, your scores look like you could be approved pretty easily.

If the status page says your approved then you're approved! 

 

Just wait until tomorrow morning. I think maybe the automated system hasn't been updated with your approval status which is why it keeps transferring to representatives. Be sure to let me know what your CL was!

 

 

@Creditballer

do you have any baddies ? Also what are your current inquires/utilization. I think tatterz is right! You're definitely an instant approval.
