thanks! Were you able yo get it overnighted? I tried asking the CSR on the app status line & he said no but he didn't even look up my account so maybe he's wrong?

Re: Amex Recon Question

Congrats. FWIW my internal spending limit with the Zync through the check spending ability button is currently at 8k yet I cannot get them to give me a CLI on my BCE. I've tried twice now and been denied both times. I guess at least I get a free ex score out of it but it would be nice if they would take a few thousand off my internal spending limit with the Zync  and move it over to the BCE. I guess they're just much more comfortable with high limits on their charge cards than their revolvers

good to know. Thanks for the info. That does seem odd though. At least we have the cards though.
