I just received my new AmexBlue at 7.99% fixed and a credit limit of $30000. This is by far the best card I have!
I'm not really sure how I got such a high CL. Although I've had a good relationship with them for about 5 years, including a Corporate Green. They have been good to me.
How'd you get 7.9 fixed from the start? I thought the lowest "published" rate was 9.9 fixed and that you had to call retention to get that lowered?
They recently lowered their available APR's. If you go to their website and apply for one, it says based on your credit you will get a 7.9, 9.9, 11.9 or 14.9. They made the 7.9 available recently. I use to have the 9.9 but when I called they would only reduce to 8.9 - but they said I could reapply and see if I qualified for 7.9. So I applied again and got it.
Anyone get reduced from the 9.9 to 7.9 without reapplying? Wife has this card and just got it about 6 months ago, when 9.9 was the lowest offered. If anyone has gotten it w/o reapplying please share how. Customer service was no help..."m'am you have a fixed rate card, it is fixed for the life of the card".

Re: Re: Yippee! New Amex Blue.. I got mine lowered from 12.9 to 7.9. There was a thread a while back on this topic. It listed the phone number to call.
