Is it too late to apply???
if they canceled my last application bc they wanted information and i never called them back about it what are the chances of being approved if i apply again now?
which two did you get because i have read about some problems getting the bonus on the gold rewards card?
is it not bad for
my credit score if i open to many accounts?
You never got a bill? You’re first statement showed -$249?
My account at americanexpress.com shows a -$249 current balance

I paid ebay $1 for account fees.
Another easy way is to pump in half a gallon of gas.
at first i didnt get approved bc i wrote my social as my tax id so they wanted a real one so plus proof so i called and said it a self run… and they approved on the spot.(i sugest leaving the tax id blank instead of putting your social)
does anyone know how long it takes to get in once your approved?
bc im a starwood member and im staying in a hotel next week and it would be nice if i could get the gold status in time?
or is there a way to get the gold status before i get the actual card?
Once it shows approved online you can ask for it to be overnighted to you.
Also in many cities you can get it reprinted the same day.
You will need your card number to get the SPG gold status.
how do i get gold status?
i called amex to get them to evernight me my new card so ill have it in time and they said that its impossible for them to do
sorry to bother you with another question
how much of a difference does this platinum card realy make for car rentals? (i will be renting in lax next sunday)
i applied three times for the platnium charge card and i checked online through your status checker and it doesn’t show up….help!!!
Hi dan i got the card while the promtion was alive, charges just like you a dollar to each card, all that shows is a dollar balance, like regular, am i missing sme thing, I got card number 2 and 3, thnaks if you explain
It takes a few days.
I have a Amex Charge card with one business name. Now I applied for a Delta Business card (tried twice already), with a diff business name and I do not see the card when I check status of the card, (only see the charge card from a while back) Do you think its because I used a diff business name?
