Good backup card

Credit Karma Member

Love this card. I take full advantage of the pay later option. Use this mostly for my business car expenses like gas and repairs as well as eating out. My business is still in the baby phase. I have the capital but not the website up yet. Amex didnt seem to mind. Barclays denied me for their hawaiian airlines business card stating i needed 5 years of establishment when i already have their personal hawaiian airlines and arrival plus card. Soft pull though because i show them the love and spend big. Always call amex before u make large purchases, theyll tell u off the bat if youll be denied. I like that. The 250 fee is worth it so far.

Not Good !! Closet account and money gone!

Credit Karma Member

I read all the reviews, seem like this card with suit my business needs. I paid their initial fee, and after short six months. My card was canceled. Felt like to me that they just took my money. I paid the card off religiously. The last time I had made a payment the account I paid from was closed. My business account that I had open for over 20 years have been hacked, so I had to close the account and re-open another account. I explain this to AmericanExpress all while making my payment on time. My credit score is outstanding they had no reason for closing my account, rather than taking my deposit. And they knew I paid the card off monthly, so they would not be making future money on me. I will never pay for credit card again!! They also delayed my review . I think this is why they have so many positive reviews.
