No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Hi everyone. Long time lurker here but I finally decided to join the forums since I've just received my first AMEX (the Blue Cash Everyday card).
After reading a few threads, I was under the impression that my card would come with a copy of my EX credit score. Or is that only for rejections?
You were supposed to get a letter with your approval and your credit score... unless you got the best terms for their BCE or some jealous neighbor swiped your letter before you could get to it.
Either way, congrats on the BCE.

I can't say for the BCE since I don't have it, but I never got a credit score when I got my Green card.
Hi FrugalRican, that must be the reason. I got an offer from AMEX that offered $250 cash back, 15 months at 0% APR, and 17.24% after that. I did some research and regular offers seem to be for $100 cash back and 0% for 12 months.
The regular offer is the one I got.
Congrats, you DID get the best offer, and that's why you didn't get a score.
Fortunately and unfortunately, depends on how you see it.

Nobody gets a score with a charge card, as everyone has the same (best) terms, this only applies to revolving products.

I got the same offer, and also didn't get an EX FICO score. What's your starting credit limit? Mine is 15k.
$250 cash back offer? What are your FICO scores? Stories like this make me want to opt back in!
Congrats on your new card!
