QS1 and Blue Everyday Cash approval

I started building credit back in Sept of 2018 and since I was approved for and picked up my new car yesterday I figured I would apply for a couple of new cards so that the hits from the HP's and drop from lowering my age of accounts could all start recovering at the same time.
Applied for the QS1, approved for $300 SL(blah)
Applied for the Blue Cash Everyday, approved with a $1000 SL
Even though I know that many people would be disappointed with a 1K SL I'm very excited about it. It's my highest SL to date.My goal while building credit was to get a car loan and get in with American Express and I've now done both of these things!
Doesn't American Express normally pull EX? I can't seem to find an HP from them (unless one of my monitoring services is.slow to update for some reason)

Congrats on the cards!  Amex does pull EX.  What monitoring service are you using?

It would probably be easier to explain who I don't use lol
I have a free Experian account which I checked first.
I also use Credit Karma, Credit Sesame, Nerd Wallet, and Wallet Hub, I know most of these give TU which the exception of CK which gives both TU and EQ.

Maybe I just missed something? I'm going to go back and look again.

I just checked the documents that American Express emailed me and found the price you pay for credit statement which shows I was approved with an Ex score of 696

Ok, I guess this cataract got the best of me tonight. After looking at Experian a couple more times I found it.

Congrats on your approval. Nope, many people wouldn’t be disappointed with a $1K SL. Rebuilding takes patience and diligence, so for many, getting in the door with a prime card is a wonderful feeling. Enjoy
