American Express Corporate Card not reporting

brendogg27 — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 19:50:11 GMT

I currently have an American Express Corporate card. In applying for it the company checked my credit. I didn't qualify for an AMEX with no set spending limit, but I did qualify for one with a 3 or 4K limit. I have not seen any reporting from AMEX on this card since it was opened. Is it possible for me to request that they report this card as it's paid in full every month?

I have always had trouble with Amex not reporting two positive accounts on EX. When did you open the account? Amex is a couple of months behind on reporting current info the CRAs. As for any requests to have it report, good luck with Amex. I have been asking them to do this with two of my accounts for the last nine months w/o success.

Hrm... my AMEX is still not reporting on EX either at 1 month after the other CRAs began.

Is the Corporate card one that will report to your personals? Sorry just wondering if, because it is a Corporate card it isn't one that will not report to personal unless unpaid.

My AMEX corporate has never reported. The card belongs to my employer, although I am financially responsible for it.

Sorry to disappoint you but I have had a corporate card for 4 years and it has never reported. I was told that it will not (unless of course, if I default, I'm thinking). I gave up trying after a while. I also have two other card holders and theirs does not report either. Hope this helps.

It's not my department, but from what I understand of the product, Cobra is correct.

I've had the card for years. I think that's crappy that I can't get credit for paying it on time, but can be dinged if it's late.

Maybe you could ask your employer if you could use a personal card instead, and they would reimburse you? Although even if they agreed, there are all sorts of land mines with that approach.

Same here, DH has carried a corporate green card for maybe 20 years now, and never a peep on his reports. The card belongs to the employer, who cuts him the expense checks, and then he pays it off.
