i used their status check online and see that it was approved! will she need to call or just wait for the card to see her limit?


Congrats. Yeah she can call to find out the limit. Most of the time the automated system will tell you what CL you got but sometimes it takes a while for AMEX to set up the account in their systems

Just call the new accs number (800)567-1083 and see if the Automated system can tell you the limit. Otherwise you might new to wait until tomorrow or the next business day.

Re: Amex Question

Yeah a $2000 CL would be just fine as we would probably only be using it for Gas & Groceries (always PIF). Otherwise I'll probably use my QSO for everything else still since its 1.5% cash back instead of 1%

She can also request rush delivery and EMV Chip. They might say no but it never hurts to ask. Good luck and keep us posted.
