How long to receive Amex card

curlyhairsuzy

Just wondering how long from applying for Amex was it until you received the card?
Thanks

Less than a week in my experience.

4 days over the xmas period for me. Make sure you get a referral for any card you apply for!

Do you mean how long from applying or how long from approval? However in my case for both events Amex quoted 10 days but it happened in 4 working days for each event. Applied on Tuesday, approval email received on Friday, card received on Thursday the following week.

Less than a week as others state usually a big fat a5 envelope

Albeit a number of years ago now since I received mine, but do they not send the cards in boxes anymore. Cost cutting i assume.

No im guessing to avoid fraud its now just a plain envelope.

Yes, they still send cards in boxes, but I think it depends which card you apply for. My PRG and Platinum cards came in boxes. The Platinum card came in a really big box. The Green card doesn't IIRC.

Mine is just a hick green card and hick Platinum cashback credit card. Both came in a hick DL envelope
