Just means it's pending, could be for verification. You could call them and ask to check on the status or just wait it out. Up to you.

Not an outright denial. But again not an instant approval.

 

There is still hope!

Looks like an approval to me.  I've seen this before when I app'd for 2 cards at once.  Had no problems and got both approvals.  Smiley Wink

It could still be a denial. Check your e-mail in the morning. If you're going to be approved, most likely it will be tomorrow morning.

Feel free to try to reach them sooner.  As soon as the glitch is resolved you can find out what's going on with your account.

Im realy at a loss for words, I finally feel like my rebuilding is going somewhere.  Im in with some upper end lenders even if theyre just entry level cards, but it feels so good.  The CSR I talked with made my freaking night when he was looking at my report and said to me "You can tell youve been working diligently on your credit for the past few years now.  Im happy to say your hard work has paid off, youre now apart of the American Express family"  AHHH!AMEXWELCOME.png
