AMEX is watching me!

Account review on December 19 and 21. I wonder if they are going to offer me the BCE that I so want!! I remember one poster(Duncanrr I believe) practically begging them to soft him. It seems as though they are peeking into my window on the regular! LOL!! They offered me BS, but it is the BC I want!

They've been doing that to me lately also, but I think it's because I've not been running the amounts like they are used to me doing.  I truly believe they are peeping on me to see who is getting the action (LOL).

LMAO!! I have been running a lot through my Green for travel, which is why I suspect they offered me the Blue Sky.  My utilization with my revolvers is like 2% so I'm like move along, nothing to see here! LOL!

(((ROFLMAO)))....I heard that ! They know that my spending has dwindled, but I guess that want to know I'm not dead either (LOL). They can see "new kids on the playground" & I'm not playing with them. I have the basic green & have pondered going upward....but I became a little disgusted with them over some Foursquare/Twitter promo credits that I had to CALL them for everytime ! 

 

Since I've been trying to control my spending with that doggone card after peeping my year end summary the last 2 years, what I've done was put $100.00 on my Serve card with my Amex green (coffee/dining out) & purchase a $100.00 Visa gift card (gas/places that don't do Amex).....and NOTHING else on the charge aside from those purchases. They know what I'm doing (curbing spending) & my invoices the last 2 months have been less than 20 pages. I carry the card as a back up in case of emergencies, but everyone has a plan that works for them....this has PROVEN that I can do anything that I set my mind to do).

AR - American Express.....which is listed under soft inquiries on credit report.  Not to be confused with a Financial Review - entirely different matter !

I'm expecting something to appear in writing (email/snail mail) soon, because they've NEVER soft pulled me like crazy until the last 90 days.....and I'm hoping for the BCE also, but I'm holding out until this time next year.
