    Hi,

    I was wondering if Optima® Platinum Card is the secured card or unsecured card. Do they report the credit limit to all 3 cra's??

    Unsecured and Yes they report to all 3 CRA's.

    Thank you so much. I also have Amex Gold but they never report credit limit, they only report high balance.

    From what I hear AMEX doesn't report any limits for any of their cards.

    Not only do they NOT report limits, Opt Plat doesn't even report your high balance. Jason confirmed this. My reports show zero c/l.

    Their Blue card, however, does report high balance. The Blue is in my opinion better than Opt Plat (I have both).

    The tradeline per se is reported to all 3 bureaus, no matter what Amex product you have (I'm not referring to corporate/ secured cards).

    Hi,

    Do you mind telling me how much for credit limit they give you for Optima® Platinum Card?? I would like to apply one because I don't want to pay for annual fee $75.00.

    Also, I saw American Express® Platinum Cash Rebate Credit Card, is it easy to get? I don't have any delinquency on my report but I have short credit history (3 years)

    Thanks

    Hey buddy, you need to check you sources. NO ANNUAL FEE whatsoever for either Opt Plat, Plat w/ cash rebate, or Blue. Where did you come up with the $75 figure? Only Amex CHARGE CARD products require an annual fee.

    The minimum credit limit for Opt Plat is $2K (though one reported $1K - I believe that is an outdated figure). The limit they assign, if any, would depend on your credit and income.
