AMEX Gold and applying for additional card

[ozgirl]

I am new to the forum...so forgive me if I am going about this incorrectly. My husband has an AMEX gold that is in good standing. He has had the card for quite a number of years. Unfortunately, the rest of our credit looks bad as result of some difficulties last year. He has one collection account that is being paid off and we had some mortgage lates last year (all resolved). I wanted to get the additional card to have for myself "just in case" but I am afraid that if we apply for the supplemental card it will trigger a review of his account and adversely affect him. I just do not want to jeopardize his standing with AMEX Any thoughts?

AMEX is in a world of their own. Hubby Has the Platimum AMEX card and I just finished a DMP of my own and AMEX was included in it. Hubby called AMEX last week to see about putting me on as a AU and they said their is a good chance I may be declined as as AU because I just finished with a DMP.

He explained our situation (will post in a different thread) and I was put on as a Authorized Agent, where I can get access to his account information which I really need at this point.

You can try with AMEX but no GTD's.
