All boards are monitored, it is just that standards and requirements vary :smileyvery-happy:

And I've found the trick is not to stop the sliding
But to find a graceful way of staying slid

Hi Everyone! I received my AMEX Starwoods Preferred card yesterday with a $10,000 limit. As soon as I registered and activated it I hit the 'LUV' button and requested a $5000 credit limit increase. My limit on my new card is now $15,000!


You shouldn't post that on this board. 



LUV button is OK on MyFico. Although some will chastise about invoking an FR--same as over on CIC. :smileyvery-happy:

YES EXACTLY!  Pushing the luv button too often is the #1 cause of an F/R with Amex members.  I have heard of very few cases involving an Amex charge card holder going through an F/R.

The FRs I've heard about involved multiple AMEX CCs, and a total CL of $30K or more.

Yes, when I applied my Exp credit score was 671. I have 1 charge off (Cap 1) just settled last month but it's 4 years old. 1 paid medical collection (last year). 1 old 30, 60, 90 days late in 2001(another cap 1), 1 old 30 day late in 2002 (First Premier) and 20 EXP inq. since Jan of this year.

Re: Bitten by the AMEX Luv Bug!

I'm not at all concerned about a F/R. I was 100% honest on my applications for my AMEX Gold and my AMEX Starwoods. They're more than welcome to do a F/R if the so choose.

myFICO is the consumer division of FICO. Since its introduction 20 years ago, the FICO® Score has become a global standard for measuring credit risk in the banking, mortgage, credit card, auto and retail industries. 90 of the top 100 largest U.S. financial institutions use the FICO Score to make consumer credit decisions.
