Anyone ever got their branded, i.e. USAA, PenFed, FNBO Amex backdated? My Amex Bluesky is back dated to 2000. I'm wondering if I get any other Amex's not directly from Amex, if that member date will apply.
yep, then i woke up =(
I guess my FNBO preapproval is not going to get used then.
Sounds like you're confused between an Amex-processed card and an Amex-issued card. Backdating is a feature of Amex-issued cards. I wrote a blog post on the distinction if you're interested: http://hiepsfinance.wordpress.com/2013/01/26/visa-mastercard-discover-american-express-what-are-they...
All perfect answers posters!
I post that because not all that long ago, that question left a lot of people wondering, or even more so, unaware there was a difference and usually didn't even know to ask such a thing.
Those answers from all of you, are why I recommend this site to so many people, to at least look at before applying for anything, even if they don't join, just read.
I tell them there are a lot of very knowledgeable people there and they'll likely get more than 1 version of the same answer (which tends to verify them all). And people here, although we don't always agree, are 99% respectful of each other, which is nearly unheard of on online forums of any kind.
