Congrats on the AMEX approval!






















@ACN323 wrote:@spiritcraft1 that's what I'm hoping! And yessss to all of those score boosts for you! 👏👏👏 I'm going to try for a CLI in 61 days and keep my fingers crossed. My scores should be updated by then.
That's awesome that Amex is giving the lower end of 600s a shot! Use it with pride, my friend!
I would suggest waiting a full year before asking for a bump, even if you are pushing $1,000 a month through it.
The $1,000 limit is the "barely made it in" limit, and Amex will want some good usage and payment history before tripling you.
@daveg38 Good advice, thank you!

The gold has been on my list for over a year now. I had a 70k miles SUB with 2k spend in the first 3 months, from Delta, and applied through that link. $1k starting limit, but I'm extremely thankful. This is the first card I've applied for outside of my two secured cards, in two years. I went to check my new acct info and didn't see my existing Delta SkyMiles in there, but I'll call Amex in a bit and get the deets. I'm thrilled to get my own foot in the door with Amex! Thanks for all of the amazing info on this forum, it's definitely a huge factor in where I am credit wise today. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
Congrats! You have worked hard and it is nice to see all of it finally start to pay off!
For the heck of it, I did the pre qual for SO since his EX is at 654 and he also got prequal offers for the first time ever with AMEX and for 3 of the Delta cards! We are still in the garden, so not yet, but it feels good to see the light at the end of a long rebuild!
@Anonymous Thank youuuuu! Yesssss, so glad to hear your SO got some pre-quals! Lol, it's been a long rebuild for sure! Thank you for all of the advice you've given on past posts! It was so helpful, and so nice to have support from other people! 🙌
