Fidelity AMEX CLI Success!!!!

Anonymous — Thu, 23 May 2013 17:42:40 GMT

I have Fidelity AMEX a little more than 2 months now at $15K, but was asked to moved $5K to my other card. So today, my itchy fingers made me CLI from $10K to $20K, instant approved online. Should have asked for CLI $25K to match with my NFCU, but I'm content with the amount.

Do you guys know if it's online and instant approved, would that be SP or HP?

HP, at least when I did it last month.

Thanks guys!

I guess I will find out in an hour or so when I check my CRs. I have too many HPs on my EX. Was your HP on EX or TU?

Congrats. Why I still have not applied for this card is a mystery to me. It's such a no brainer.

Tell me, I understand non-Amex issued Amex cards that just use the network like the FIA Fidelity or Macys Amex don't honor the backdating of Amex-issued cards....but do they still put a member date on them?

Yes, they have a member since date, but so do a lot of other cards (my Citi and Penfed for example). As you say, nothing to do with the Amex card date.

So what's the point??? Any benefit to it?

No real point I can see except to visually reward loyalty! Which is worth slightly under one cent....

Well, unless it translates into some real advantage like backdating on Amex, it's just clutter to me.
