https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Card-Applications/Amex-SPG-in-progress/m-p/4664887#M129408 I'm thinking it might be a denial since I've had instant approval with them before but I'll call tomorrow when they're back from the holiday Mon, 04 Jul 2016 23:54:14 GMT Anonymous 2016-07-04T23:54:14Z https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Card-Applications/Amex-SPG-in-progress/m-p/4662510#M129066 <P>I have 2 other cards with Amex that I've had for a bit... I pulled the trigger on the SPG because where I am looking to take my wife for a vacation has a few Starwood properties. I've been instantly approved for the other but this one said my application needs further review and then the online app status shows "in progress." Is this basically a decline? Maybe because of the holiday weekend it is in limbo?</P> Sun, 03 Jul 2016 01:23:15 GMT https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Card-Applications/Amex-SPG-in-progress/m-p/4662510#M129066 Anonymous 2016-07-03T01:23:15Z https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Card-Applications/Amex-SPG-in-progress/m-p/4663463#M129190 I don't think it is necessarily a denial. Try calling in.
