I logged into my account at the Amex site and received a message that says, "Because of your standing as an Optima® Platinum Cardmember, we invite you to add an Additional Card to your account! Accept Pre-Approval / Learn More Is this guaranteed? CardKid
Hey, Someone else posted awhile back about this. I think when they clicked on the link, it took them to a page that asked them for the name of the person you would like to receive the/an additional card. I might be wrong, but I remember that post. Whatever happens, good luck..........
Is this a pre-approval for an "AU"? Or, am I pre-approved for another card product? I checked out the cash rebate card and received the following: Add this Card to the one you currently carry, and, in addition to an enhanced array of benefits and services, you'll receive up to a 2% cash rebate on every eligible purchase. CardKid
YOU GIVE SOMEBODY YOU KNOW...A SECOND CARD...it has their name on it...YOU PAY!!! It is an "AU" card...
AMEX invite you to apply for an additional card. I don't know why others talking about AU. You never mentioned anything about AU. They don't read your post. BTW approval is not guaranteed.
But AU is what they mean. To find out if you're preapproved for a new card for yourself, click on the "apply for a card" link, then "I am already a cardmember" then log in. It will show if you are preapproved for something else. Unless your George, of course.
OK~~~I DIDN'T READ IT RIGHT!!! ACCEPT "PRE-APPROVED" MEANS NOTHING!!! I was denied both AMEX PLAT CASH AND GOLD DELTA...686-718 F.I.C.O. I SEE THIS AS AN "AU" INVITATION~~~GUESS I WAS WRONG!!!!------------>Additional Card to your account!
OK CardKid, do they invite you to apply for additional card ( new card ) or they invite you to add an user to existing account ? It's not clear to me. I am confused now.
Welcome, "GEORGE" Because of your standing as a Blue from American Express Cardmember with Blue from American Express, we invite you to add an Additional Card to your account! No annual fee Anyone you choose can share the benefits and convenience of Blue Additional Card charges are itemized and separated on your regular statement "ACCEPT PRE-APPROVAL"~~~"LEARN MORE"
I clicked on "Log In Now" under "Im already a cardmember." I get the "Welcome" screen and a message that says, "Because of your standing as an Optima® Platinum Cardmember, we invite you to add an Additional Card to your account!" I clicked on "Select From A Wide Range Of Cards" and chose the American Express® Cash Rebate Card (clicking on Learn More). At the top of the web page, it reads, "Add this Card to the one you currently carry, and, in addition to an enhanced array of benefits and services, you'll receive up to a 2% cash rebate on every eligible purchase." At the bottom of the page, it reads, "Accept Pre-Approval." CardKid
I clicked on the Accept Pre-Approval. An application popped up that was partially filled. It looks as though I will have to submit an application if I want the card. It smells like an inquiry waiting to happen. CardKid
Because Amex gives you no way to cancel the application on screen, I closed the window and exited the site. CardKid
Yes, you did right. It would have been an inquiry. The preapproval will be on the first screen you see after you log in. Keep looking. Even then, though, you get an inquiry, and you have to fill out a short application (pretty much reverifying/updating your info). That's how I got my Blue. Only doesn't work if your George.
