What's the most you have ran through your Amex charge card in a month...so far my usage for this month is at $9100 and my statement closes in a few days I'm kinda nervous to keep charging....I hear so many horror stories. Had the card since Oct. 2010 platinum charge card. My average usage would be around 5k give or take 1k.
Starting Score: 490
From what I have gathered, AMEX has a pretty good sense of what each cardholder can handle. So, it may be that their internal notes on you give you max headroom up to the ceiling, whereas with me, they probably gave me one of those ultra-low, popcorn ceilings from the 60's.
I imagine that if your monthly spending is well within what they think you can handle, they probably won't bat an eye. May be different for the next guy. If I started spending $9K a month, they'd shut me down so fast my head would spin.
Maybe go ahead and pay now, part of it anyway?
Otherwise, I agree, they're probably OK with where you are. Although I sure wouldn't pay one day later on this one than you normally do. 
You guys have a good point i make multiply payment thru out the month on it though. So my outstanding balance is never that high. But I just wondered if that much usage and that many payments would raise any alerts for AA.
If you're paying as you go, I can't imagine they care one bit how much you're putting through the card. Or rather, they care and are extremely pleased.
well i had an issue with bofa in the past before i became an amex custre and i was in bestbuy and my card was declining for a 200 charge i called bofa and they closed my accounts because they said my balances had gotten too high with my outside creditors and they felt i was a hig risk....so reading alot of negativity about amex makes me kinda wary...thats the only reason why i dont think ill ever want a revolving credit product from them im happy with the charge card..cause u set your own limit and it helps you maintain financial responsibilty
