What would be the easiest amex revolver? please post your credit profile (score,baddies,inquiries etc) at the time of approval ....thx!


Don't know the easiest but I was approved for the BCE last night (moment of weakness) . They pulled Experian, score about 740, 9 inquiries, tons of student loans in deferment and new accounts galore. I have added about 5 accounts this year..roughly one every couple of months. No baddies, no collections, no lates, etc. Only approved for $2000. I should have waited probably. My AAoA is about 2 years. I will not be applying for anything else for a long time. The low limit and high apr quoted by Amex tells me I need to chill.

 

Edited to add I was about 6% utilization

until you get a finacial review by amex then you'll poop bricks Smiley Very Happy jk

 

and btw you won't want past a 50k line so there's the line. since after 50k it won't report to credit bureaus period. won't do a damn thing to help your score. =)

Re: Amex revolvers

From what I have read on here and on other forums, the two easiest revolvers to get are the Delta Gold and Hilton Card. Now the heardest is probably BCE or one of their hotels cards I think. As for inquiry sensitive, again from what I have read, they are pretty inquiry sensitive. Thankfully, I only have 1 on each bureau so hopefully I wont be scaring of any future creditors unless I start apping like crazy. 

Bank of America: Cash Rewards.- 4.2k. 4/25/12 (CLI Increase 6/15/13, CLI May of 2015, sept 2015), Citi: Forward- 4.5k. 10/27/12 (CLI on 2/8/14, SP, CLI on 9/26/15 sp).
