Relax about the FR man. You're obviously not engaging in any huge manufactured spending or trying to buy tons of gift cards every month. Seems like you're using the cards normally.
Well I have bought network gift cards for fee free promotions, but that's not what I am really worried about.
A. I just opened a couple accounts and I hope AMEX is okay with the extra available credit i now have because
B. They gave me a card with a starting limit equivalent to 67% of my annual salary and really not a lot of credit history compared to others around here.
I'm just waiting for the day they wake up and s**t bricks when they realize what the computer gave me lol
EDIT: Just looked and my total revolving credit exceeds my income by $2,900 not including student loans. (although those will be in deferment until I graduate in 2018)
I think it's pretty common for people to have more credit than their actual income actually. There are people here who have probably 3x their income in credit and haven't had issues and they don't try to fudge their reported income either.

FWIW, they also gave me the same thing (limits of a little under 60% of my income between two cards). I am a graduate student. If they FR me, I am obviously doing nothing wrong that I know of (I use the card almost daily, and I PIF, no large gift card purchases, and the gift cards I do buy I buy because they are cheap, like $80 for $100 worth of iTunes, or because they're actually gifts etc).

Amex does check on me twice a month, like clockwork. Discover though, is different. They checked on me, every month, all the way until I accepted one of the pre-approved invites. Then, once they had me, NOTHING. They haven't bothered to check on my other credit activities at all. Not even once. No calls, no flowers, no anything. It's like once they have you they lose all interest... it doesn't feel right...
Sounds like you 2 got married...

I had credit sesame soft pull the heck out of me. At least every week, and usually even more! Regardless whether I logged on or not. Didn't have much use for them with all the other options and free experience at whim, so closed them.

That's kind of what they do. I think the monitoring works better when they soft pull the report once in a while.

I had all monitoring turned off. On my end it would update only when I logged in, and earliest a week after that. But on their end they'd sp nonstopn in between.
