    Dogman..Maye We Impose?

    Dogman,

    If possible can you talk with the rep who helped you get your AMEX Green Card and ask for clarity on the possible new secured card? I know you probably have read all the posts, if not please read them to see what I am referring to. If talking to your contact is not possible, we certainly understand.

    Thanks

    By the way..I'm loving my AMEX checking account! Now I need to add a card!

    Killer did you see my post

    earlier today? There is indeed a new secured Blue card. Your credit line is 150% of your deposit. Apr is prime +8.25%. There is a $25 application fee and they say they will unsecure it if after 1 yr the account is in good standing. Only problem is they said they didn't have any apps on hand. Will send one out once they come in.

    Yep I saw the post. I did talk to an AMEX rep who said he was mailing me an app. But it's still confusing because Jason just posted that it's a secured Optima! Oh well I guess it doesn't matter as long as it's something! LOL..Hopefully Jason can clear this up on Monday.

    They told me today that the secured Optima was no more. I'm beginning to think that no one at AmEx knows what is going on. By the way, how did you get them to send you an app? I was told they didn't have them yet.

    She said that her computer had an option to input callers name and address for an application to be mailed. I actually questioned her LOL..anyway she said she was sure and the computer told her that I am being mailed an app. She said wait 5 to 7 business days.

    I can call her and tell her there is a lot of interest.

    I may snap back.
