Re: AMEX Blacklist computer system down Sunday and Monday Morning

The rep further stated that otherwise, I will NEVER get back with AMEX and would be blacklisted forever since AMEX was included in my CH7.

 

The above is not correct. They never forget, but they do forgive. I burned them in a BK in 1982, and got back in with them early this year.

Congrats on getting back.  But, 33 years later ?????  I will be lucky to be alive after that much time.  I did take the rep's NEVER comment with a grain of salt.  But for practical purposes, anything over 15 years is pretty much a credit card life sentence in my opinion.  Personally, I think their extended blacklisting policy may be a bad business decision in many cases, particularly for high income candidates.

Truth be told, I had never tried until early this year. I had always assumed that I'd be dead to them for all time. Then I started reading this forum and discovered that others had gotten back in, so I gave it a shot.
