Yes for sure! Congrats $19 AF isn't bad at all.
Don't app for any more cards now. Give it six months before your next app spree.

Sounds good! Thank you for the advice!! It's such a great feeling to see, "congratulation! You've been approved!" LOL! It's hard to refrain from going app crazy~ ![]()

Okay, so if you were to get approved for an AMEX card now. It will lock you in as a 2012 customer. So any future applications with AMEX will back date to 2012. As in if you opened another card 01/13 is would show up on your credit report as being open since 01/12 thus extending your AAoA.
Your new credit probably won't give you a shot at a card, but you never know with AMEX. Likely a better chance at a charge card than a revolver, but you never know.

Hopefully somebody else will chime in about the AMEX idea.
The zync would have been perfect but they got rid of that card. So I am not sure what card would be easiest for you to get now.
