I'm wondering the same thing. When I have six ontimes behind me, lower my util, I hope they'll let dh have a card again, even if it's green. When they shut dh down, I immediately paid the balance in full.

Hopefully his scores will all be in mid 600's by June, so we'll see if theres a pre-approval.

My suggestion, wait at least 3-4 weeks before you apply. So it would update in all Amex systems. When you apply for new card, go for Delta Classic and Green Charge Card. That is the safest way from what I have seen in the Amex world.

It might not even matter. It didn't give me any preapproved offers, yet I got a Delta Gold.

It offered Blue in preapproval. But I did not get it when I apped. So there is no telling what would happen. Fortunately, no hard inq for me on this app.

I don't see any pre-approval link on American Express' homepage. Can someone point me in the right direction?

When I logged into my account I saw a link at the top that was saying I was pre-approved for the American Express Rewards Plus Gold Card. The exact verbage is as folows "You're pre-approved for the American Express® Rewards Plus Gold Card. Enjoy extraordinary Card benefits in addition to the benefits your current American Express Card offers. Apply now and pay no annual fee for the first year." Is this the link you guys/gals are talking about?

If you already have an AMEX, though, it will not give you any preapproval offers.

It will, but you'll have to enter your login ID first.

There's a link on that page that says "Already a Cardmember?" If you're an existing cardholder, you have to go through that link instead of filling out the form on the first page.

No, that's kind of the whole point of the CID. It's supposed to indicate that the physical card is present.

Thanks for the link. I just tried, but got this message. Suppose I will check back in a while and post my results.

WE'RE SORRY!

Thank You. Unfortunately, we were not able to process your request for a preapproved offer at this time due to system maintenance. Please try again later or view other offers by following this link.
