Re: Amex BCE

The only time scores will drop is when a lender pulls because you submitted an app....you can pull scores and reports everyday if you wish 

As for your yearly report that's free you don't get that here...

Here is a link for that

https://www.annualcreditreport.com/cra/index.jsp

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Re: Amex BCE

I'm glad we're here to help you... Good job everyone.

You can do the free 10 day trial...
I think you have a decent chance, but we need to know what you current cards, limits, and balances are.
Also, if your SL debt is over 40-50k, that might be bad.

Re: Amex BCE

I think you are good to go, but encourage you to app for the BCP instead for the better signup bonus/cashback, and if you can't justify the annual fee in a year, downgrade to the BCE.

This is not necessarily true. It truly depends on your entire credit profile. I have way more in SLs than this and I've never had an issue with being denied any credit bc of my SL. Honestly, my aaoa might be higher than the OP but otherwise, I think OPs chances are pretty decent.

Re: Amex BCE

I said *might be*
As Ive accrued $43k of Sl debt myself, the "loan amount to balances too high"
Has become a primary reason for cli denials or partial clis. Lol
