Re: AMEX BCP Approval but only $2k?

The low SL is not related to the card being co-branded and instead, credit profile specific

That's great!  Congratulations on your AMEX approval!!🎉🍾🥂

My bk is about 2 fall off ex and eq in about 8 months. Bk on ex when I applied. Gotta BCP 32600 almost 3 months ago. That's my only amex. It will grow for you. Congratulations. Sometimes lenders are fickle. Just gotta give it time.

Interesting...As someone posted the new AMEX approval before HP link.

 

I said why not...My score is now 741. I have AMEX Bonvoy $15k limit and use it every day and PIF since March. 

My reports were still locked.

I got a whopping $2k limit. 

Is that because the Marriott is co-branded and the BCP is only AMEX?

Maybe because my BK7 is still there from 7 years ago?


I got $1000 couple months ago. And it will stay there with no CLI's until the BK falls off in 2025.


I've heard of a lot of ppl geting stuck at $1000 until a BK has fallen off but in that case how does the OP manage to have a $15k limit on the Bonvoy?  Maybe I'm wrong but I've been under the impression Amex doesn't have lower standards for co-branded cards than their other offerings.

Re: AMEX BCP Approval but only $2k?

Congrats! And yes it's very likely they gave you a smaller limit due to the BK. Their core cards have tougher UW than cobranded ones and charge cards.
