It should be 2013. And if it's not, easily start a chat with them and they will fix it.

Re: AMEX will not backdate

My  experience when contacting CSRs over the phone is there's almost always problems.  Perhaps people make judgements about others based on tone of voice? 

 

Via online chat, things seem to go much smoother.  Almost no issue whatsoever when dealing with AMEX.  Perhaps online CSRs are better trained or assume that online users are smarter?

Before I received my BCE, I called to see if my MSD could be corrected.   I was told that I had to wait until I received the card.   So I tried chat and, the next day, they updated my online info and expedited a new card.  I actually got my "1998" card before my "2014" card

The first number member since date is month the second number is year you became a member. If you got your first card 12/2013 and then you got a second card January 2014 that second card would have member since

1/2013 gaining a whole year on paper from the first card on your credit report. Where really you had it a shorter amount of time.
