I have an Amex ED that I got at the end of June but I really wanted the BCE (I was preapproved for it, the BCP and ED before getting the ED) but I wasn't getting the good offer I wanted so I didn't apply for it until tonight. I cleared my browser's cookies and Amex showed me offers I've not seen before like $250 after you spend $1,000 in purchases in your first 3 months so I went for it! I was instantly approved for $1,000 not great but I got the card and offer I wanted, and 0% APR for 12-months so I'm happy.
My FICO 08 is 661, income $108k and 6 inquiries on EX. My utility is 6% and all my baddies are about 4-years old.
Congrats on the approval! I got the same Amex BCE promo offer 250/1000. I hit the 1000 spend on 7/28 (card was approved on 7/4) and Amex posted the 250 credit to my account the next day. This is my first Amex card and I'm very impressed by them so far. I think you will really like this card.
