Just accepted for Amex card - any idea on my limit?
The £1200 limit assumption is a legal thing all card providers have to use.
It helps make things easily dividable by 12 (as 12 months; 1 year) to clearly show interest etc.
What limit did you get out of interest (don’t share if you don’t want to).
You’ll have the card in a few days and you can get the PIN online when the card is activated, although you normally choose a PIN when applying for the card.
Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.
