Just got my first American Express Card!

I got approved for an American Express Everyday card yesterday and I just found out my CL... $7,000!

Very excited to start my relationship with them and grow with them. I know they'll play a good role in helping me break 800!

Hello,

First of all, let me tell you that on top of the regular Congrats!!! I will tell you that being approved for your first American Express credit card is like the best possible news in the credit card world. To me, this is my goal one day to be able to get an Amex, in reality it's not to use it, but let me tell you my friend when you open that wallet and that beautiful design of Amex is showing when you are about to pay for something (with another credit card) lol it looks great!! Do I know?? no I don't because I don't own one but I see the commercials and other things that relate to the card.

Congratulations, take care of that card and if you asked me, I'll stay at home (don't go out with that hot date) and pay the bill of that card no matter what, hahaha.. Ok I'm done.
