This was my first Amex card. Got it straight out of college after I got my first job. Love the rewards and customer service. When I got approved, my score was about 683 (EQ).

Just got this card. It was not an instant approval and I had to wait a few days. My score TU was about 710. Had a couple of 30 day late payments a few years ago. Thought I might not get approved, but finally was. Am glad I now have an Amex.

Got a pre-approved mail in the box. Thought that I would never be approved. But I was! I love Amex CS compared to Chase and BOA (also have their cards). I have always been tempted to upgrade to the Gold version, but have stuck to this card for better or worse.

Approved with 635 EX which is what AMEX pulls. Earned 25,000 points after spending $1,000 in the first 3 months, which is equivalent to $250 gift card to Neiman Marcus or wherever. NO Complaints so far.

I have been waiting to be an Amex member since I was a little girl watching my mother use it! Credit Karma said I had very good odds of getting it, did some research about it and applied for 2 (Blue Cash Everyday and the Green) I got them both instantly! I am so excited I can barely stand it.

So I decided to add a review since this site recently helped me calm my nerves after needing to apply for a corporate green AMEX. I was so nervous because after applying for a job, getting it, and then having to worry about the credit approval process. Of course! Knowing that AMEX only uses Experian and that credit reporting bureau will not furnish your true FICO score upon request and instead give you a Vantagescore which is misleading. I decided to hunt around and TU will give you a FICO score. Save your money on a credit report from the bureau and read these reviews. Real people with real results! I was approved this morning. Hope this review calms some nerves :)

For an average credit score of 687. I was surprised to receive an offer to apply for the American Express Green Card, and got approved in less then 60 seconds. Yes, it is not a credit card, but a charge prestige card. Connected to one of my checking accounts? The money awaits there automatically to be taken out at due date, with me not to worry. The benefits is not compared to any other bank cards. This is a great charge card, for travel and booking my hotels, rental cars and flights, through AMEXTRAVEL and enjoy double points, with no blackout dates Guaranteed. Just what I wanted for many years, finally came through. Thank you AMEX!
