Help with calc Amex 61 days...

[youngman1234]

Hi, 

I was approved for a costco true earnings card on 4/30/14, and I dont remember when it came or the day I activated it. But was around 5/8-5/12 in between that. Is the 61 days from the day I applied ??? I went to look at app status, and it says approved on 4/30/14.

I asked the same thing recently a member shared the below - my date is Aug 9th.  Good Luck!

"For the 61 days, log into your account and look at "Recent Charges since..." It is probably $0 if you just activated, but the "since" date is your start date. Then add 61 days to that with this calculator: http://www.timeanddate.com/date/timeadd.html"

Thanks Bman70 for the above link...

The recent charges since is june 28. My second statement cut already.

Makes sense... go to your account page and look at statement one and see what the charges since date is... that's your calc date then add 61.
