strabismo Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Well I got my Amex green today and I was happy. The I continued to look through the mail and what did I see. I was also pre-approved for the Amex gold. Should I apply for it or not. I am looking to buy a house in three months, but this seems like a good opportunity. Please tell me what everyone thinks. Thanks a bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alizain Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 looks like it would be a good idea to apply for it if you dont have many credit cards .. if you are utilizing more than 50 % of your availble credit card limit at the present time u might get declined .. remember to keep the credit card balances to as low as possible and dont have them stacked up on just one card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strabismo Posted March 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Well went ahead and applied and got it!! Now my only question is do I keep the green or not activate it and have it cancelled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alizain Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 well if u really want agood credit card ...go to a credit union ...ive had em all... amex boa chase ... if you're late one month its a $39 late fee plus they jack your apr to over 20% even if your intro rate was supposed to be 0%.... credit unions only charge $10 late fees and there fixed rates hover around 8 % .....look up the yellow pages and find a local credit union Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
