    So I have a question. I've had a Macy's stores account with a $12000 limit for some time. I went into the store and asked about an upgrade to the Amex. They went through the application and said that I was approved (yayyyyy) for an Amex with an $8900 credit limit. I made a purchase on the temporary shopping pass and went on my way. I called customer service to see about getting the same limit as my store card. They said that they could only find the store card. However they said it may just not have hit their system yet as it was earlier the same day. The last four digits are different between the shopping pass and my regular card. And, when I logged into my existing profile online, it's not showing my last purchase (which I know usually shows up instantly). So my question, does it seem like I was approved for he Amex or not?

    You may have already received your AMEX, however if you haven't and you're still wondering do this: Set up a Credit Karma free account. When you access your acct it will show whether the AMEX has been reported to your TU or EQ credit reports. A HP if done will also show on one of those two CHs.

    Sounds like you were approved for the new AMEX credit card if you were able to make a purchase using the new account; however, it can take several business days for the new account to hit their system. I'm curious, now that it's been 4 months, how long did it take for the new AMEX account to show up in your online profile?
