Applying for Amex BCE

[Anonymous]

I was just approved with an Experian score of 695

Congrats to @mrboss @bopem this is a great card to have as it's limit grows really fast. It really makes your profile look way thicker very quickly. 

Enjoy! I would wait until day 61 and then ask for a CLI really high. Worst case scenario is that they counter with something lower but shoot for the sky!

Thanks, I went to the "pre-approval" page and it said that I was pre-qualified for the BCE and the BCP.  I applied for the BCE (didn't want the annual fee with the BCP).  I didn't really believe that I was pre-qualified, but I got the instant approval with a $4k limit! Needless to say I was thrilled

I was approved with a $1000 SL! I found an application status webpage and once I put in some information, it said I need to call a number to verify my home address. It seems like my bday being next week helped my case as the rep kept talking about it and was like "this will make you very happy with your birthday coming up" lol. I wish the SL was more, but she said I can ask for an increase when I activate the card. How much do you guys think I should ask for?

In regards to the Citi application, that wasn't one of the banks I burned 9 yrs ago. To the question about my student loans, I'm still in school, so I haven't started paying back on them yet.

I applied for the BCE 3 days ago. I checked the preapproval and had the option of the BCE cash or points card. I applied for the cash version and got a generic "app is being reviewed" message. I called to check the status and was informed I was approved for a 5k CL, 22% APR, but No 0% APR offer, obviously I took it, my highest CC is $1500. I do have a couple store cards 5/6k. My experian is at 687, probably would be 750+ if I didnt have 60 inquiries. Also my score was in the 400's about 2 years ago. Spent a lot of time lurking on the forums reading.

Carried a balance since I had the card of about I've put about 5,000 through the card and paid 3,000. Had a balance of 2,300 when I requested the CLI.
