Thanks myjourney. Always there to keep our heads on straight. How a $9k in a year?
If I'm reading right, $500 initial
x3 at 61 days is $1500
x3 at 180 days after is $4500 after this +180 another request for a CLI
Will I get another opportunity to get another CLI at a year? Yes No, it will be 14 months in. (1@2 months 1@8 months 1@ 14months)
I'm glad I mistakenly apped for regular Blue instead of bce or bcp. I probably would not have gotten anything.
Yeah, that was my math too, lol. But regardless, I guess a year after the initial upgrade CLI.
I may end up calling today and just asking to see if I can even get to $1500-2500.
Also, if I use it for a larger purchase than $500, it won't incur any fees, etc? Then I can pay it off directly and not have any issues?
Thank you all for chiming in, I definitely appreciate it!
EDIT: Also, should I call the AMEX EO or customer support? (when trying for the CLI)
Well.... I spoke to some folks, they advised that they didn't know why the low limit, that I'd have to wait 60 days from opening the account to request an increase. No dice getting an increase in the immediate limit. I'm hoping using it monthly but PIF, that they'll at least go may $2500 or so on the CLI. I'd say I'd have better luck calling in than doing the online CLI on the 60 days if I'm looking for more than the 3x limit. Stinks, but ah well. Sure is a pretty card though, lol.
Did you ask to PC?
congrats, op! and like everyone has said, it's AMEX and it'll grow with you as long as you treat it right
