Damn,
that took me by surprise. I've had amex blue for the past two years and they bumped my credit from 2.5 to 10K. Then earlier thismonth i signed up for amex gold card and as it turns out, they sent me one with no pre-set spending limit. Craziness


<- off to buy a house ... and a porsche... and a hooker

When they say "no pre-set spending limit" they mean "we're not telling you what your limit is."

AMEX Blue = Credit card.

Any other AMEX = Charge card.

Credit card != Charge card.

yeah just found out there's real-time limit. Basically they monitor your purchases and deny you if you try to charge something that's unusuall for your spending patterns.

No house/hookers/porsche for halik ... sniff sniff
