Strategy to obtain US Amex

This is from another thread


2FA with Chase and Capital One still works for me only via phone call, not the SMS.

When I pick "send me SMS" and I don't get it, I click "didn't get the code". Then "call me" option shows up. Click on it, you receive an automated call that tells you your code number and you need it enter it to the bank website. They thank you for authenticating yourself and you are in.

Thanks. BTW this is person is talking about the same issue I experienced.

I find it a bit strange that Chase is a bit inconsistent with requesting W-9. I've had CIPs approved immediately whereas some cards will require a W-9. I've always applied for a Chase card whilst on a VPN. Don't remember if I ever applied whilst state side.

I did get immediately approved by C1 for VX whilst state side though.
