What am I supposed to do with my life if I can't check for pre-approvals on cards I'm not gonna app for?

 

Really, I'm just posting this in case people are having issues with applications.

I know, I need my daily fix of prequals which I do right after checking my Experian report and CK reports! 😂

OMG...that’s my EXACT OCD morning credit behavior!  Make my coffee, check EX, check CK, check AMEX for prequals (for which I will not be applying until summer 2020).....

Well I don't specifically check Amex every day, or even do prequals every day, but the checking my reports daily is true. And I'm not going anywhere near Amex probably until December 2021. 😂

What's it like getting a pre-app and not applying? The closest I've ever come to that is choosing which pre-approved card to apply for

Re: Amex Apply Site is Down

@Anonymous it's pretty difficult. I have a pre-approval for Freedom Unlimited that I've been holding off on for a few months now. I just don't think I'm going to get a decent limit so I don't want to waste my time. Not trying to burn HPs for increases. Been down that road with NFCU to the tune of 5 HPs.

Re: Amex Apply Site is Down

The AMEX site STILL has this problem after all these years?!  omg.....   

 

Years ago I remember calling up because I couldn't check something and nicely "bitching" out the reps LOL "I can't believe one of the most well known, biggest financial institutions on the planet can't get their IT issues sorted out!  How am I supposed to rack up usage on your cards if I can't trust the site to let me in or maybe apply for another one!?"  They'd laugh with me.
