gypsie Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 So, my company wants everyone who travels to apply for an Amex corporate card. I looked through the new expense procedures emailed to me and it states clearly cards will be approved or denied by Amex based on individual's credit...Obviously, I would love to have a corporate card, instead of waiting on my expense checks to reimburse me, but....I already have an Amex card- however, it doesn't count- because I'm an AU on DH's account- I pay the bill each month- from my checking account- but, since I'm just the AU- I get no recognition for it.I have recently been denied by Amex when I applied for my own card earlier this year. Amex, didn't care that my FICO's were all in the 700's. The kicker was the fact that I have a BK. (although, I have never BK'd them)Any point at all in applying? Does anyone know if they are more likely to approve based on the fact that it's a corporate card and will be paid by my employer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhslancers Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Tough position to be in. Likely they will just decline you again with the BK showing. How old is the BK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gypsie Posted December 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 BK was 2003. I figure they will decline me. I told my sup today - that I won't be applying for it.It just sucks, because everyone will think, "she must have bad credit since she doesn't have a corporate card"..... It's times like these when I wonder why I even bother with worrying over FICO... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
