AMEX DELTA GOLD APPROVED!!!

Hi Everyone, I wanted to share some very exciting news with all of you. Today, i checked my fico scores and they are 630 EX, 625 EQ, and 624 TU. I then figured it would be fun to see if I could get a CLI in my Cap One QS card. I did get an increase of $100 making my total spending limit now $600. I know, small increase but better than nothing, i guess. So then i decided to check the AMEX prequalifier site and almost fell out of  my office chair when I say the words "PRE-APPROVED" for the Delta Gold AMEX card!! I was so excited I applied immediately. I received the 14 day message and started to get nervous. 3 hours later after reading posts here and constantly checking the application status site, i saw the words "APROVED". Again, I was so excited I nearly hit the floor. LOL... I then called to AMEX and requested my limit. It's $1.000 and so far my highest bank card limit yet. I thank ALL of you for your posts. My credit journey is finally taking off and I owe it all to this Board. I'm am so grateful. I promise to do right by this card. Love you guys!

Congrats!! That is Fantastic indeed!! 😎😁

I was going to get the Delta card because it had a awesome sign up bonus after I apped for my other 3 cards but my application was disregarded because I had applied for 2 revolvers and a charge the month before and they said there was a limit to apping for that many cards in a short time frame.

After that I just put it on the backburner. I have to go abroad to Asia in the fall of next year and Delta has good rates checking now so perhaps I'll app for it again then.

Congrats and welcome to the AMEX family!! Get started on the Welcome offer and buy a Delta Gift Card for the lowest limit if you’re not going to purchase a ticket or Delta product in the first 3 months. That will trigger the statement credit for the $50.00. Once again, congrats!

Congratulations!  A couple of years ago, I received the Delta Gold approval and felt the same way.  I had never had an AmEx in my life.  I didn't come here to share it, but I should have.  I had nobody else to tell.

Treat that card well, and AmEx will treat you well.  I now have four AmEx cards (one through US Bank) with credit lines from $5000 to $17k.  Keep reading here, stay disciplined, keep your balances down, and your relationship with them will grow too!

Re: AMEX DELTA GOLD APPROVED!!!

Good advice Millionairelynch. I actually have two trips coming up that i plan to use the card for. One was already booked before I received the card approval. The other trip is for work. I’ll book that flight with this card and have my company reimburse me! 😬
