AMEX Reallocation Link

I have both of my AMEX accounts are set-up.  Where do I find the link to reallocate my credit lines?

I believe so too.  I couldn't find it anywhere on its site.  Thanks!

I wonder if calling the executive office would get them to reallocate my credit lines.  It may work if I explain to them the purpose for opening an additional card.  I'll wait to see if both accounts report  1997 first.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not, but I'm pretty sure you'd anger a lot of other posters by contacting the Executive Offices and making certain their personally aware of a fluke in their reporting that gives unusual AAoA boosts.

 

Not that people at various levels don't know what's happening -- but pushy letters to the Executive Offices may have the unintended effect of someone finally getting around to "fixing" it.

Can I post anything  without  people chastising it?   I didn't say anything about writing a letter to AMEX's offices.

Re: AMEX Reallocation Link

AMEX discontinued allowing customers to reallocate credit lines across multiple cards more than 3 years ago. This is something they will not do for anyone, anymore. Sorry.

 

I don't see how contacting their offices is going to help you; it is a policy of theirs and they aren't going to break it for 1 person just because you asked. Wish they would though, used to love that feature.

Actually, I have the link available for 2 of my 3 amex cards. This functionality has been discussed on the forums recently and Amex has started to allow reallocation, as long as both accounts involved in the reallocation has been open of at least 12 months. The problem is now they process the reallocation differently in the past and require that you give updated HHI information before you can submit the reallocation request.

Re: AMEX Reallocation Link

AMEX does allow reallocation of CL.  At least I have the link on one card on my account.  But, when I tried to do it, I was declined because the other of my lines was "too new".  When I called for an explanation of "too new", I was told that both cards involved had to be 13 months old or older in order to reallocate.  YMMV.
