Just wanted to say how impressed I was with Amex application, recently changed they now let you know if your approved before it was a %chance.
Applied Friday morning, got the card Saturday.
fastest card I have ever applied for and received.
excellent limit as well.
so far app is good and it’s the cashback one so 5%

Amex's platform is pretty top notch, it has to be said. My main niggles with them are their insistence on taking DDs a fair while before the payment is actually due, and also the (minor) obstacles they put in the way of debit card payments.0

Ditto
This is my first ever credit card. I applied on Wednesday and the card arrived on Friday!
I only discovered my credit limit of £10K when I received the card, which is very ample and I'm pleased with.
App is easy to navigate, the 5% cashback is great, and the card is already in my digital wallet and being used.

All the major supermarkets take Amex, only recent knock-back was Home Bargains.0
