My statement cut last week and got a SW alert yesterday with a EQ FICO of 734. I'm past my 62 days with AMEX and want to get a CLI. I really want to hit the love button but I'm going to wait till AMEX SP me so they can see my new updated utlization. It went from 23% to 7%. Any way to induce a SP??
Ask Duncanrr. I believe the consensus was there is no convenient way. It will happen when it happens.
But in the end I believe he ended up going for the CLI before he was SP'ed (he tried waiting, but it took so long) and was approved. YMMV.
Big thread devoted to it, I will go try to find it.
Make sure you pay off these before there statements cut. AMEX BCE: $33/$5400, More: $15/$4750
You will probably see a 10 point increase from just reporting 1 card with a balance vs 3.
Hoping they soft me relatively soon. BCP is one year old in Jan.

SnackTrader is correct. There is nothing you can really do about it. Be patient. I went two months between SP's when a CSR told me they do one once a month on new accounts.
They softed me on 12/05 last on EX. There have been other times they SPed me on all 3. Just hoping they do it early January

I need SP from them as well. I need to app for Amex BCE in Jan. They last SP me on 11/12/12 and util is about 18% (2 cards).
If they SP me now, my UTIL will be 7-8% and reported on ONE card only.
It's been 35 days since my last HP and still nothing. GRRR common AMEX
What I did to make sure they had an updated SP, was to app for the Gold PRG, which I was approved for.
THEN I requested a 3x CLI on my delta gold and was approved instantly.
