BBVA Compass NBA Am ex

Anonymous — Thu, 09 Apr 2015 16:13:02 GMT

So I was approved last night for this card. My question is I have not ever had an Amex card before mostly because I could never get one of those pre approvals at their web site. SoI know this is a co branded card but did I just qualify for an Amex Ex card and got my foot in the door with them? Did Amex have anything to do with me getting this card or no. I remeber a couple months ago applying for I believe was best buy/chase and was rejected because they said I had to many chase cards at the time.

Hate to burst your bubble but NO. This are 2 seperate banks when it comes to co- branded Amexs

Ecxpa it runs on the Amex network. Just isnt issued by Centurion. BBVA issues it. Two different companies.

It can be a bit confusing when it comes to co-branded products here are some examples:

Chase Amazon = Amazon Tie In but Administered by Chase Bank

AARP card = AARP tie in but Administered by Chase Bank

BBVA Compass NBA = Amex network but Administered by BBVA Compass

Delta Skymiles Amex = Amex network and Administered by Amex Centrurion Bank

Dillards Amex = Amex network but Administered by Wells Fargo Bank

yea......similar to the co-branded Discover Cards.......still doesn't make sense. But then I guess it is in essence like Visa and MC.......many different flavors

Congrats! on your BBVA Compass approval!

I am so on the fence over this card whether to pull the trigger or not. I almost did last night but i'm not fully convinced of it just yet.
