Ive had the green card since January. I have used it monthly and paid as agreed. I have a reasonable score for AMEX BCE, but when I applied they SHUT ME DOWN!!
Thankfully it's a soft with them, but I don't even want the green and it's getting the ax before the AF this year even if I can't score a revolver.
The only thing I can think of is that I have a bunch (like 8) paid collections from '11 and 12. I do have one unpaid collection which I don't intend to pay.
I bought a house, got some great cards including AMEX green with these collections, but cannot get that AMEX revolver.
any hope?
I would get the EX score above 700 then apply again, the BCE and BCP have a higher and tougher guideline. However some have gotten it with scores similiar to yours though.
Amex Platinum, Amex Hilton HHonors Surpass, Chase Southwest Premier, Chase Marriott Rewards Premier, Discover IT, Sony Visa, Barclay Arrival+ MC, Cabela Visa, Walmart SC, Amazon SC, Kohls, Diners Club Premier, PayPal Credit, PenFed Platinum Reward Visa, PenFed PLOC, Chase Ritz Carlton, Citi TY Premier, Amex BCP, Discover Miles, Care Credit, Blue Nile SC, iComfort SC, Cap1 Venture, Chase Hyatt, Lowes, US Bank Cash+, Citi Costco Visa
.. Sure I probably could get a charge card now, but prefer the revolvers and don't feel like a CC with AF from Amex anymore. They are weird sometimes!
