Getting Amex to Report

I remember when I was added as AU it took awhile. I have the two new cards with the backdating to '86 and really want them to report.  If I put a charge or two on them will that speed up the process?

Nope.

First you wait for the first statement on each of them. Add four weeks to that date --that's when AmEx will report. Then the usual 1-10 days for the CRA's to update.

And they don't necessarily generate a statement that first month, balance or no balance.

Have you called CS to find out when your statement date will be?
