Strategy to obtain US Amex

[http_x92]

I have a US HsBC Premier account and a US Amex card via GT.
I dont have an ITIN. Can I apply successfully for the HSBC Premier card through my HSBC Premier account?

No need for an ITIN - call them up and you will be sent an online PDF form to fill out.

I did mine entirely through an online form - no PDF

Same, this PDF form must be a new thing.

Correction - it was all done online but I was sent an Adobe Acrobat form and I filled it out.

How did you access this online form?

I see there is a higher tier of Priority Pass with this card which will be useful for some airports. Also full access to restauraunts it sounds like. Getting the 60k bonus remains to be seen.

Yeah it's much better - 2 guests rather than 1 and restaurants included which I'm finding increasingly useful as lounges get busier!

I was sent a PDF form last Sep when I applied for the CC (checking account application was online)

Hi can you tell me which number you called to get through to US premier? Everytime I call I get told I can not apply for the credit cards as I am not a US citizen? I have spoken to different people and they all come back to me saying that I can't apply?

Is there any specific words you say for them to send you the online PDF application form?

I did as part of my original application for US Prem - the agent assigned to do manage my onboarding couldn't do it themselves but got one of their colleagues in the credit card dept to sort it.
