Amex and SoFi Approvals!

itsanndrreww — Fri, 23 Aug 2024 21:54:29 GMT

After finishing a payment program with AMEX for a previous card from years ago, I was surprised to be able to apply (and be approved for) the Green Card as well as the Delta SkyMiles Platinum card recently with no issues. Seems like AMEX is willing to give you a shot even if you made mistakes in the past (I was irresponsible when I was younger)

SL of $2400 on the Delta Platinum, but thinking that can easily be upped with a CLI down the line.

In addition, approved for the SoFi Credit Card (all of my primary banking and investments are done through SoFi and I wanted a 2% cashback across-the-board type of card) with a SL of $4000.

With my credit history and my other cards this has given me a lot more flexibility and the ability to put other cards in the sock drawer (I have a Citi Custom Cash that they refuse to up the CLI from $400 on for example, not sure what to do with this one yet).

Feeling good about my approvals and my strategies moving forward!

Welcome to the FicoForums and congrats on the approvals, especially the SoFi one! I wanted that one, but don't bank at with them at all (see Fidelity 2% in siggy).
Sorry about Citi not budging with the CCC limit :/.

I'm trying to figure out how to work the signature thing. When I follow the directions and go into the personal settings it doesn't give me an option to set a signature

Once you rank up to "Member" you'll be able to update your signature.

@itsanndrreww Under settings, select "preferences", then next row of tabs down select "personal information" tab scroll down and you'll see signature box if eligible.
