Good week with Amex

Anonymous — Tue, 26 Jan 2016 23:04:39 GMT

A little back story, back in October I app for Amex Bc was denied, only reason was listed on letter was "Fico to Low" At the time EX was 640. Fast forward to last Tuesday with a 30 point jump to 670 I decided to try again with Amex Ed. .....come back approved for a sl of 1000. Cool. Got card yesterday tried 3x cli settle for 2000 instead. So today lets try for the ED....it come back approved but with no limit listed, call CS.. And it's 5k. Omg.

I don't post much on the forums but I read them everyday. I want to thank everyone for the posts of advice, encouragement, and everyone success story.

I started down this credit road back December 2014 with no credit and scores in the 570 across the board.

Now with cards from Cap One (4), Chase, Barclays,Amex(2) ,24k available credit and scores in the high 600 I'm very happy. Heading to the garden for a year or two

thanks everyone
