Why Isn't Amex Reporting?

[WhiteCollar]

As of next week I will officially be an Amex family member for 61 days. I do plan to ask for 3x CLI at that time. What's interesting is that my Amex account is not reporting on any 3 of my credit reports. Do any of you know how long does it take Amex to report new accounts?

It is normal, Amex takes 2 sometimes 3 statements before it reports.

Especially on someone's first Amex card.

@WhiteCollar    If it does help at all they were very slow to report my card I've had with them almost two years this past go around I actually reached out to them to see what's up so it may also be something with them in general.

You should be happy they report after the second statement.  Longer it takes to report, further you are removed from new account penalty, there is frequently a small points gain when an account reaches three months old.

I wish no one would report  for ...a year

Mine has reported yet either, I'm at day 69 now and already got the second statement which cut last week. I was hoping I'd get to see the impact of it for scoring purposes, but might not happen and it'll just pop up when it's 3 months old.

I would be delighted if none of my credit cards reported in their first year of existence.  I don't understand why folk are so eager for new cards to report.

It's not about being eager, just making sure I'm keeping track of things.

You will get 99 notifications  when it does.

I was just wondering about this myself as my AMEX card of 18 months has not yet reported either. Statement close was September 2nd and I check my credit reports daily in preparation for a mortgage loan.
