Woohoo! Got Costco Amex, too! :)

I had planned the Zync app when I knew that I would be going to Costco and also because Costco was having an Amex drive this week. I was hoping that my chances of approval for a revolver would be better during the Costco Amex drive. Also hoping I'll only have one HP. I'll have to pull my EX and see.

I was approved for $2k CL. It's a good starting place. It seems all my CCs (except for cap one, of course!) are at the $2000 to $2500 limit. I'm hoping to break through it this year! I'll probably ask for am Amex CLI in 61 days, but not sure. Is it a HP? NOW I'm in the garden for sure.Smiley Very Happy

It is a HP, but if you are going to garden, I think it's worth it! I will be requesting one in April!

Congrats!!!!  I use it a lot when I eat out. I earned a lot of cash back. You're going to like the card. They started me out $2K.

Thanks! Every so often, Costco has a table or booth set up to promote their Amex card. They have promo gifts (I got a Costco tote bag) if you app. So, I was hoping that being a promotional period, my chances of approval would be greater. Smiley Happy

So, an Amex CLI is a HP? Bummer. How do the do on auto-CLIs? I really don't want any more HPs for a while.  Plus, I'm going to be moving soon and that may be more inq that I hadn't planned on. Smiley Sad
