    I just got a call at work to verify *my* employment. I have only applied and not heard from Citibank, American Express and Mervyn's. I'm hoping it was one of the 1st two and not Mervyn's. I assume once they go that far, you are in the door.... Guess I'll wait and see.

    Plain ole' green one...but it might have been Mervyn's calling. They didnt say who it was and I didn't ask. They just said can you verify employment for Jane Doe and I said yes she works here. They didn't say how long, how much money NADA. My luck it's Mervyn's.......lol.

    I highly doubt Mervyns would call.

    Christi, nobody knows for sure the min score for Amex. I highly doubt Meryn's called for employment verification. I also think Amex is getting a little easier with approvals, you know the delta card craze.

    Call 1-800-the card and check the status, you may be very suprised:)

    I just called AMEX and they said

    DENIED

    So..either Citibank or Mervyn's called to check employment. I have received the other cards or the denial letters already. This was all I had pending. hmmm
