What was the reason for the denial? After all they don't only look at your score.

To quote Bill Clinton, "I feel your pain".  I'd be grateful for any Amex card right now!

Sorry to hear.  Scores are just one part of the equation.  Gardening will help.. Hang in there.

Sorry to hear. I was hoping for good news when I read the title as I could completely relate to wanting an AMEX. It will come in time. Good luck!

More than enough credit.

I can't get a CLI on any of my Amex cards because of many inquiries and new accounts, yet they approve me for another one. Go figure.

Re: AMEX Let Me In

I cant get a CLI either for my BCE, did the whole 3x guide and NOTHING, but they approve me for 2 new cards simultaneously, 1 is a charge card (PRG), so it potentially has a higher limit and the other, which is the hhonors card DOES have a higher limit, makes no goddamn sense.

Re: AMEX Let Me In

Weren't you just denied for an Amex Green a couple weeks ago for similar reasons? There are no shortcuts, they are telling you they want more history, time and patience is what's required here. Garden for six months and try again, I would stop wasting inquiries.

Come to the garden...we have cookies...

 

I app'd for the ED in November.  Couple weeks later I see on AmEx's site I'm prequal'd for the ED.  I called em.  Oh yes I did, and lamented to why they are teasing me.  CSR stated try after Christmas.
