amex zync questions

I understand that this card is mostly npsl but if it gets set at a hard limit say 500 with auto pay, what is auto pay? where you set up reaccuring payment through your checking account to pay the card automatically?  It seems the zync is the way in with amex for starters correct? I just though of something, all the cc's I have either pulled tu and eq and I have zero inquiries on ex. I only have 9 mos credit history though with 3 cc's reporting in excellent standing.  Should I apply or just spray my app itch with anti itch lol? Im opted out so I dont come up under the prequal

Haahaa love your quote given your post. What's your fico at and is that reported util optimized? Amex will pull experian for charge cards so that is good for you. You got the autopay thing right. The hard limit is usually given if truly borderline case for Amex.

fico 2 mos ago was 680's tu 670's. last month was mid 650's on both due to 40% util (i let a balance on boa report) so im thinking i should wait till after reports are in for june to report around 5% which will happen. Nfcu just gave me an additional 1,000 so that should help with my util

Yeah wait. See if you can get ideal util to report or as close as your finances will allow (you know ideal util right?). I think you have decent chance. If reejected, wait till cc hit 1 year and apply again
