Re: My Amex Magnet experience

Glad is going good for you, AJC! I don’t have amazing limits on my Amex cards but I do love how fast the bonuses post. They recently gave me an auto CLI so even better. 😂

Just felt like sharing my recent experience with Amex. I got the Magnet during those hectic few days it came out. Have been super happy with Amex since I've come back on my second journey with them . I burnt them in bk7 over 10 years ago and languished in blacklist Land for 10 years. I promised myself I'll never burn them again and have adopted a pif mentality especially with Amex.

I love how my payments get taken quickly and credit restored kinda like Citi. I just finished the first part sub of $1000 in 3 months for $150. The second part I dont think I can make but I digress.

2 days ago made my final payment for $345 to break 1k. This morning was checking my accounts I already have a $150 accredited to my account. Wow , super fast. This has been my 3rd sub completed with Amex, ED, BCE, and now Magnet. All super quickly applied. Very happy with my experience so far. Now if I can only get a true 3x lolSmiley Happy. Thanks for readingSmiley Happy

I love when you share,   So... I too had a BK from May of 2010.  And if I remember correctly ,  Amex was not included, but I did burn them for $3k,   I think in 2011/12.    Been blacklisted ever since...   > April of 2018 when they Approved me for the PRG..  THEN $35k POT..   Then last week after I unfroze Experian (719) Approved for Magnet  15 Thousand dollars!

> I was actually on the phone with a really nice man... He had a very heavy accent,   And. I say again ...   He was very nice.  He said congratulations welcome to the Amex family.. You've been approved!..  I said ,, oh..  Thank you!  With tears in my eyes...    I thought I was dreaming.  Because, it wasn't an instant approval,  I got a letter telling me to unlock my file, then call.    I almost passed out when he said I was approved.  And when I was told the amount, I was really in shock and started to get emotional. I said thank you again and hung up the phone, I got my card 3 days ago.  I love everyone on this forum....  My signature (is a work in progress)

Re: My Amex Magnet experience

Bodyboy1 that's awesomeSmiley Happy Very happy for you. 15k is amazing. But nothing beats getting back in with a lender after making mistakes. Back in Feb 17, I got a WF Amex because I thought I'd never get back in. Lol that same week, I have no idea why, I decided to unfreeze my Ex and try Amex for S&G. Just messin around playin double Dutch I put in for the green card and it came back approved. I was shellshocked. I was like ok, I'm a MFer so I know about the 2 for 1 and tried for the ED and b sm approved!. Crazy. But yeah you cant spp Amex with Ex frozen. So any bk survivors always try with Ex unfrozenSmiley Wink
