Re: How much of a point boost will an Amex Gold Card authorized user give?

I have had an AMEX GOLD card as an authorized since 1 month after my BK7 discharge. 

I truly think it has done nothing to help my rebuild.

Discharged BK7 - 7.16.15
Current Fico8 - (8.2022) EX - 744/EQ - 728/TU - 740

Amex used to count the actual date the account was opened for AUs, so that could give a boost to AAoA, but they stopped doing that years ago so it will now shows up as a new account. I'm not sure when they changed, but I added my daughter as an AU to my Gold about 10 years ago and it shows as a 25 year old account for her.


April 2015.

 

My minimal 1 year extra backdate is still functional too, yippee.
