Approved for Delta SkyMiles Gold American Express Card

Hi All, 

 

I posted some months back that I was approved over the course of two years for three AMEX cards using my companies "Corporate Advantage" link. However, anytime I applied outright for any other cards I was denied due to "previous cancelled accounts". I filed Chapter 7 in 2018 and included AMEX in my bankruptcy. 


Well today, I was shopping for airfare on Delta and I seen the advertisement for the AMEX Skymiles Gold card. I applied and a message popped up saying I would not be eligible for the welcome offer. I decided to follow the prompts and I was approved for $15k. I wonder if this means I am truly off the blacklist now. Just wanted to share my experience.

I'd say you're most likely off the black list.  However, now you're in pop up jail! Smiley LOL
