Hello! Does Amex still offer the Oasis program or do they have a new one in its place?
Starting Score (2/2010): TU-767, EQ-745
Oasis program is invite only. If AmEx or one of its CA contacts you, you can ask for it in exchange of paying off the debt you owe. They may or may not offer you.
Did you burn AmEx? If so, for how much. How old is it?

Ahhh that's right. I had a charge off about 15 years ago. I get pre-qual offers but haven't applied because I may be blacklisted. Just trying to figure out how to pay the debt and to get a corporate card.

I just left a post on your other thread, but if you're interested in a corporate card it's likely your own situation won't matter, anyway (depending on your company).
I was able to get a new corporate card account with Amex just a few months (like, five) out of a chapter 7 bankruptcy in which Amex was included for a significant amount. Especially if your company is large, the credit is deemed to be with the company, not with the cardholder.
Good luck whatever you decide! 
Thanks! That's good to know.
More than likely you can get your AmEx too at this point. Don't bother paying back anything at this point.
As for Corp AmEx, you should be good but as a datapoint right after my CO (and AmEx still had till I paid it off), my company wanted to issue me Corp AmEx and I was denied because of past CO. I wish I had paid off that and gotten in sooner, would have retained a card date from 2004. But after 15 years AmEx will let you in, apply for one if you want to if you are getting pre-approvals from them

I was denied a corporate card about 7 years ago - likely because of the CO. My scores were over 800 at the time. I was clearly blacklisted then. I was lucky enough to avoid needing it until now. I will apply next week. The last barnacle off my credit boat.

Forgot to add...they set be free from the blacklist! I was approved for an Everyday card today! Woot!
