Strategy to obtain US Amex

[georgie23]

Thanks for sharing. May I ask what did you provide as proof of address pls. I also noticed that with P2's chase application, she was never able to receive text message, but with my 3rd and 4th application I was able to receive them. We are both with tello.

I used SoFi bank account - choose that one as it had lots of transactions and showed both savings and checking - my issue was that they were using the ITIN letter that was sent to broker who set up for me with their address on it as my address verification even though I uploaded bank statement - once guy sorted that I was good to go

I use Tello - never got the verification texts - last guy who helped actually called me back on Tello number - maybe ask that

Pls tell us more about ‘normal residential to forwarding service ‘

I have exactly this experience with P2 for both Amex and Chase. P2 just had 1 Amex via GT a year ago then all other applications all failed or rejected or required 4506C forms which similar to rejected applications. I have no idea what else to do on P2 behalf

even failed on 2nd amex application?

Ok . I previously read using usps change of address service does away with need for id verification.

Thats fine with Chase, but would not work with c1 venture x card as its getting delivered via courier (I cant seem to change it a standard mail service).

I will give a try on settingup Sofi acc, thanks for sharing.

Why do you want standard mail service ?

I’m guessing he doesn’t want that but he could no longer use his friends address so had to look for alternative
