Benefits include a free checked bag, priority boarding, and an annual Companion Certificate for domestic main cabin travel.

Application Pending? Check your status online at AmericanExpress.com/Application-Status or by calling 1-800-567-1083. Sometimes, all they need is a quick verification.

Thinking About 2 Cards? You can only get approved for up to - and including- 5 Amex credit cards (including personal and business), but this rule isn’t always enforced (please note the total of 5 credit cards excludes some Amex cards that are No Preset Spending Limit* cards like the Amex Platinum, Amex Gold, etc)

Application Declined? If your Amex application was declined, you can ask for reconsideration within 30 days without a new credit check, or up to 90 days with a new one. When you call, you can ask to move credit from another Amex card or close an old card to get the new one. If they need a tax return, send what you have—it doesn't need to match your stated income. A bank statement might work too.

Approval Rules: American Express follows a maximum of 2 card approvals within 90 days, known as the 2/90 Rule. You can hold up to 5 credit cards, excluding No Preset Spending Limit cards, with a limit of 10 such cards. Additionally, you are allowed one Platinum variant every 90 days.

What's the difference between a credit freeze and a credit lock on Experian?
There is no actual difference. By law, a freeze needs to be offered for free. Experian wants to charge you so they offer a freeze for free but for a lock they want you to pay a membership. They both do the same thing
Is it possible to reallocate my credit limit from a personal Chase card to a business card?
No, you can only transfer credit limits from personal to personal or from business to business within Chase.
Does obtaining a credit limit increase from Chase involve a credit check?
No, Chase does not pull credit for a credit limit increase.
