I got my Amex on 11/2014 with 1 month of credit history, my other cards were not even reported to CRA.
Asked 3x CLI on 61 - got 2 HP into TU and EQ and denied (I think Amex makes HP if you don't have at least 6 months to generate FICO score).
Asked 3x CLI 90 days later - denied with SP.
Asked 3x CLI about 100 days later - approved with SP.
So - if you got FICO score - go for 3x!
I went for 2x instead and was approved. hmm..maybe i should have gone for 3x. I gotta wait another 6 mos. No biggie.
so far...i havent received an alert
