Credit Score: 712 Credit Limit: 2000 Age: 35-44

For the last 2 years, I have been rebuilding my credit from the 500s. I had a couple of secured credit cards from BOA and Cap One and also a couple of store cards. I gradually rebuilt my credit score to the 700s. I wanted to get an Amex and decided to go for the Delta since I fly them a couple of times a year. I was really that I was approved though the $2000 CL for a 700 plus score looks on the low side for me.

When I applied for this card, my score was about 680 area. My history was about 7 years, had utilization of probably about 10%. I got approved for $5k CL. Since I was already a skymiles member, I was happy to get the sign up bonus. Also, as a side note, Amex pulls Experian.

I got approved for this card with a 690 Experian score. I checked my reports after the approval and found out that they only pulled Experian. So if you are getting this card, I think the score you should be concerned about is the Experian score. So far so good as far as my experience goes. Already got the bonus miles and am very pleased with that.

This is the first card I got and when score was about 645 then. The reason I got this card was because I got a job that required me to fly and I was always flying Delta. Love Amex and their customer service. Having said all that, Delta's frequent flyer sucks in my opinion and I eventually swapped this card for the Blue Sky Preferred - same CL etc. Once again CSR was great.
