Amex is known to be slow to report. If it were me, I'd be happy that they haven't reported! Hidden TL! Smiley Tongue

Re: Will my Amex BCE ever report !?

I'm in nearly exactly the same boat--my BCE is 4 days past its 2nd statement cut date (both with balances), and hasn't reported anywhere yet. I don't mind at all though; it'll report when it reports, and it's not like it makes a long term difference.

What i think happens is amex deoesnt report until you have a balance to report at closing date, i think. I may be wrong. At least when you first get the card. I had my BCE and showed zero bal for the first two statements. The moment i showed a balance at statement closing it was reported to the bureau. Perhaps someone else can confirm?


I actually had a high balance on my first statement due to the fact that it was a new card and i did not know when the statement would cut off, and i had about $800 on a $1000 card, and i was mad as it was not paid off before statement cut off, but even with that balance, i am going towards my second statement (which will be the first full statement btw) and it still has not reported. If it was before, i would freak out, but now i am actually happy because 1- Hidden Trade Line Smiley Happy 2- The later they report, the older the account will be, i wish they would wait till around 6 months mark, so it will not be considered as a new account by fico, and drop my score.

Why is it some of you dont want it to report?  Im thinking cause it has a high balance?    I want mine to report to up my amount of trade lines and the utilization will be very helpful to me ..


In my case it is not the balance, i pay them off every month anyway. I just would rather AmEx report it by the 6th statement because fico will not consider it as New Account after 6 months. Therefore it will have a bigger positive impact on my credit score.
