    Hey happy to report that my GT card got a 5k increase and is now sitting at 40K. It's my only card, i haven't had the courage to ask for a second one.

    Yes Finale got it right. credit.com works. I use it too for the Vantage score. Also Credit Secure by American Express works for the whole Fico8 scores from the 3 bureaus. I usually apply for a card every 10 months to 12 months, but applying to a new card every 6 months would be fine. So far I...

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    I think my Citi Priority account let's me withdraw cash free worldwide but unlike Schwab the ATM which i am taking out from may have a fee. Schwab refunds this, Citi does not. I have not used withdrawals much, it's easier for me to "wire" from US account to EU and withdraw the money in Euro...

    I have one, i have not used it much lately but it's there. I have my US cards loaded into it but i could try sometime using my Double Cash with it to see if it triggers the 3% FTF. What do you use it the most for?

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    In theory $34.9K is the maximum safe from Proof of Income, not $25K that is reported in much of internet. Anywhere from $30-34.9 would be safe and what would i recommend the most. Crossing $35,000 is a little more tricky as accounts can be stopped at $34,900 and some others are like given the...

    Strategy to obtain US Amex

    I opened the account a lot of years ago because of a Citigold promotion. The account doesn't have much special and I'm considering moving my money for a Bank of America Platinum Honors account and another part to Charles Schwab (if they let me open the acct) Nope, no forwarding. I have a second...

    Guys just a quick update, my US Citi Prestige limit has been increased by $4,5K to $30K I asked for a limit increase, my Citi Prestige has seen little action so this increase was rather small. I opened the card last year. No ITIN. Tomorrow i have to do my Amex credit limit increase which i...

    Thanks! I do use Google Voice for my US phone. My Amex GT was rather weird, i was not asked my passport # at any time nor do i have ever gave it to Amex. Also my GT was without an Amex card. This card that i got that day was my first Amex card ever in any country. The rep over the phone didn’t...
