Schwab Amex Surprise

yzerman · ‎05-27-2021

I have a preexisting relationship with Amex including Gold, Green, BCE and Hilton Honors. DP experian 669 fico 8 but last derog is over 5yrs old. My BCE and Hilton have a cl of only 1k each so I wasn't expecting much. I went for it and received a Schwab Amex Investor Card instant approval for $10,800 SL! Hard to believe with a mediocre fico but I do pif my other Amex cards every month by making multiple payments. Once you get your foot in the door with Amex anything can happen!! All of these cards were obtained with only the one initial HP which is an extra bonus.
