Approved for Everyday Amex!

After getting approved tonight for Barclays (finally) after apping for the 4th time, I felt very lucky and decided to app a bit early to get my foot in the door with Amex. I decided upon the Everyday card, as I have read that it seems to be the most lenient and easiest to get approved for. Completed the app and approved for $2000 initial starting limit! Already set up the online account and got a taste of the great customer service via the chat function.  I'm assuming I can ask for a cli increase after 60 days? What about product change to move up to the Blue cash at some point?   Since this is my first Amex account, if anybody has any great advice for me on what to take advantage of, please let me know. Thanks to everyone for all of your help over the past 2.5 years!

I would say that you may want to wait to do a CLI right off the bat if it is your first AMEX. I did it when I got my first AMEX and they denied me saying I was too new to American Express. I think it may apply for people who already had an AMEX and ask for an increase right away.Lots of first time cardholders get the CLI right away. The too new to Amex is just an excuse they whip out when they don't think the profile is strong enough to support an increase at that time.I'll let you guys know in a couple months what happens with the cli.

  • Approved for Delta AMEX!! Whoa!

    Congrats!

    So, I had no intention of apping for anything for 3-6 months after I got approved for the CSP earlier this month. But today Delta sent me a targeted offer of 60K bonus mile for $1000 spend! I couldn't pass up this offer even though I didn't expect them to really approve me. Wellllll they DID approve me! I'm so excited! I thought AMEX was still a long way off for me but now I'm in! It said I have a temporary credit line of $1000 but since my credit score is not amazing I'm going to assume my actual CL is $1K. No prob, I'm IN! Anybody else get  this offer?

  • Got approved for AMEX everyday and Premier gold in same month w/640

    Hey guys, I applied for and got an everyday card with a 500 limit (a start I guess) on 6/29, and I applied for the gold premiere charge card on Tuesday, and got approved for it. What is a good way to guage spendability on the gold?  My plan is to just put all of my normal monthly expenses on the gold and pay it...  I guess if I hit a wall, I hit a wall.  I was very surprised I got approved for either, as I've tried to get amex charge for years without any avail.  I currently have a 640/617 on creditkarma.. I joked with my wife that my BMW financial loan with 3% interest must have facilitated the approval.

  • First time AMEX application - Approved for 2 cards!!

    Business credit. Also, I'm looking into buying a slightly used car and my debt to credit ratio would be under 30% by next August in addition to the next credit cards I intend to get and raise CLs on in the meantime. this may be outside the scope of this thread, but I intend on purchasing its small property and fixing it up then getting it reappraised for at least $10,000 for a next investment.

    Some background info: I started out with Equifiax score of 423 in 2011 when I signed up for credit monitoring and have hammered away at all debts since then. $900 left in student loans total to this today. This morning my Experian Fico score updated to 657 with a credit ulitization of 31% after I paid down my balances.  Equifax was 578 and TransUnion was 684, although AMEX doesn't pull from these.   I paid off all collections with pay for delete except with AFNI which I'm currently disputing.  Also, there is a judgement with Capital One also setlled.  Both negative accounts are over three years old.  I started with a bank credit card $500 CL, bank $1000 installment loan and 2 secured cards in June 2014, both $500CL.  I closed the secured cards and upgrageded to 2 CapOne cards (Journey and Quicksilver One) later that December. I've made steady on time payments on all accounts since the secured cards.  Two months ago, my CL doubled to $1000 on both CapOne cards automatically. Today: I applied online for the Amex Blue Cash (not preferred. I wanted free anuual cards) and was instantly approved.  I created an account online and noticed there was only a $1000 credit limit.   I decided to apply for a 2nd since it couldn't hurt much.  I decided on the EveryDay card.  I was prompted to call Customer service.   Phone conversationRep "I see there was a duplicate application"Me   "I applied for a second card.  I usually apply for two cards at a time.  However, I pay all my credit cards on time. I've done it for the past three years and don't intend to ever stop.  Check my credit report."Rep "We usually put a hold on second applications for 5 days"Me   -silent-Rep "Tell you what, I will make an exception for you.  As a matter of fact I will make two.  First, I just approved your second card.  Second exception I will make is that I will have your cards shipped with expidited shipping.  You will receive both in 2-3 days."Me   "Thank you.  I have heard how great AMEX was and its a breath of fresh air to have a such a great company to work with."
    Rep "Thank you sir, I wish you a great day"Me   "Thanks brother, you too" I told the rep I apply for 2 cards at once because I do.  Two secured cards at the same time in June 2014, two CapOne cards in December 2014, and now two AMEX in July 2015.  My experian report does show "No payments missed in 3 years".  Speaking honestly about the diligence you put into your finances will pay off.   I went into detail here to help out anyone who wanted to know the process of one way to get two amex cards within 5 minutes of each other. Cheers!  

  • What's the easiest AmEx Card to get approved for?

    So I'm starting to set some goals for myself as far as credit goes after not really paying too close attention to my scores. By this time next year, I'd like to have a score in the low to mid 700's and ideally get an AmEx card for my wallet. What's the easiest card to apply and be approved for?

    The easiest to get is Amex Delta card.  But if you are planning on applying next year and your scores will be in the 700s, you should be able to get other cards also.

  • DGF Citi ATT Approval and SPG amex Pending. What next to get..

    So my GF just got her autoloan and a new car so we thought its a good time for an app spree.So far Approved for Citi ATT at 2k.SPG Amex is still pending.Thinking Arrival+ although the nerf is a bit upsettingmaybe another citi card. Possibly AAany other ideas? Chase is probably a no go. shes opened 2 cards with them past 6months (CSP and United).Her Fico is around 705EQ 700EX AND 715TU.
    No baddies or anyhting like that.

    Citi's computers take their time to update. So her new AT&T card may not even be factored into what the pre qualifier says. Kenny is right, I wouldn't test the waters with another Citi app immediately.
    If she's pre approved with Cap1 even with the new card 2 months ago, is probably a good indicator she would be approved.
    US Bank pre qualifier is next to worthless and unless you have some type of existing banking relationship with them, wouldn't even bother until scores are around mid-700.
    She probably has a good shot at something from Barclays. Arrival+ probably has the best bonus from their offering. I never kept mine for over a year though so it depends on use and long term objectives if you want it for the bonus or for the long haul.

  • How to change default approval for ResourceAuthorizerApproval ?

  • Approval for deviation from credit limit

    Hi Guys
    Approval for deviation from credit limit does not work in the following scenario.
    Credit Limit = R20000
    Balance = 0
    Sales order added for R18000, no approval needed as less than credit limit.
    Then user changes the Sales order amount to more than the credit limit and no approval is activated.
    Any ideas? They are on 2007A SP 01 PL 7
    Thanks

    Hi,

  • Auto approval for self registration request in OIM 11G R2

    Hi all,
    We have a requirement where we want end users to be able to self-register without needing any sort of approval. We are using OIM 11G R2 with the latest patchset.
    The way to do it in 11G R1 is explained in the following document:
    [http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e14316/unauth_selfservice.htm#BABFEIBF]
    But now that R2 does not have any request templates, we are not sure how to do this. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

  • Process Controlled Workflow - 1-step approval for shopping cart approval

    Hi,
    I have configured a one-level approval for SC (Process Controlled Workflow):
    Object Type: BUS2121
    Additional 1 level under schema: 3C_SC_600_000 (the last level is the automatic approval)
    Level Type: Approval with completion
    Eval ID: 0EV_SC_SL1
    RR Name: RR_SPENDING_LIMIT_APPROVER
    RR Param: USTONY.Y (I hardcoded it using my user ID, for the moment)
    Task ID: 40007953 (I have checked, it's generalized as well)
    Decision Type: Item-based decision for entire document
    For PPOMA_BBP:
    Under my org unit (Position):
    Approval Limit: 1000
    Output Limit: 1000
    I didn't do any BADI implementations yet.
    During creation of SC by other user, before "Order" the SC, the approval preview can show correctly that the Processor is as indicated in the config.
    Once the SC is ordered, the whole step is gone and the event linkage becoming delinked (because there is error, and according to the config in SWEQADM).
    However, I cannot find the workitem (no workitem generated) and SLG1 does not give any clue whatsoever.
    I tried debugging method APPROVAL_LIMIT, and it seems fine as well.
    Please help, what did I do wrong here?
    Thanks,

    Hi Sahil,
    I even changed to first process level to:
    Level Type: Approval
    Eval ID: 0EV000
    RR Name: RR_MANAGER
    RR Param: (Blank)
    Task ID: 40007953 (I have checked, it's generalized as well)
    Decision Type: Decision for entire document
    Under PPOMA_BBP:
    I made myself as a head of the org unit with the role manager.
    The requester is "Exclude" the role manager.
    The agent can be determined now.
    But the workitem ID is still cannot be generated. It's always no workitem generated.
    Please everyone, any help?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Report - who is the current approver for purchase requisition

    Hi Experts
    Is there a report that can give information the status / who is the current approver for purchase requisition?
    currently if we open the PR directly, we can only know the release strategy, release code, status of approver, but we cannot have the information who is the person that should approve this PR.
    Thanks in advance
    Prashanth.v

    Hi All.
    Unfortunately we want to have this information for our end user, and they will not have the access to SE16.
    Another thinks is from CDHDR we will have the information if changes are made in PR. So it will give information user that already approve the PR
    What we want to have is a report of outstanding PR (not yet released) that have information who is the user (the user complete name / user id)  that should approve the PR.
    Thanks In Advance

  • Approval for cheque while payment

    hi
    I require the approval for cheque while payment to vendor.  guide me how to do that. before every check printing we need approval from the higher authority.
    Thanks

    hi all,
    i started this project again after so long break....,
    my steps to complete this task-
    i copied the program / report- sapf110o to z* and started building the whole scenario. and will try to assign the workflow as well which is related to miro , ws20000397(but still not sure).
    logic:
    only for invoice payment.
    only date as selection my program will show all the proposal on that date. in second screen vendor level approval is available and in third level detailed level approval is available.and in third screen you can cross check accounting document or display miro.
    it has three level approval, will update table and this will trigger workflow(while running f110) so need to do some enhancement on f110 as well to trigger workflow.
    thanks and reg,
    Ahmed,
