As you know I got a Delta Skymiles before, and converted to platinum. Since Amex is regarded as equal to or better, than citibank, I felt it was necessary to do the double-back-door on Amex. I applied for a Delta Skymiles Gold card a few days ago. Been in "Pending" State for 3-4 days... 1. American express needed proof of my phone number. They did not accept the telephone number i gave them before for my Platinum Optima. "We're sorry that phone number shows up for someone else". 2. Application is now being referred to credit department to set credit line. I SHOULD see my card in 5-7 days. Now i know there is a fat chance in hizzell that i will get this card, but you never know
SAm has it been more than 90 days since you got the orginal delta card?? Amex told me I could not apply nor accept their preapproval for another account until 90 days had passed since my first approval.
No it hasn't been. I'll let you know. Apparently i haven't been denied yet. Been maybe 60 days or so since i applied for the first Delta card.
That's odd, because I got the Delta Gold on one day, then the next night was approved for green for students.
I was told by amex new accounts that you can only have be approved for one credit card in 90 days but you could be approved for a charge card right after being considered for the credit card. Cypri
Several reps have told me it is totally random, which I agree. I've had all three checked (not at the same time) as the result of applying for various cards.
