FINALLY!!  I was approved for the AMEX Green today, finally!  I know the PRG has better rewards, but I have always wanted the Green.   According to the application status page I have appled for it a whopping 7 times since November 2012!  One more card to finally get (Chase Freedom) and I will be completely done apping for cards.  Guess I have to reset my garden date from the first of January to the 17th. 


Congrats 

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

No, they never called me back on details specifically.  All I know is I got the email saying I was approved.  Didn't really care what they had to say, unless, I was denied.
