How long does it really take for AMEX AU cards to arrive. I know AMEX says up to 2 weeks; does it really take that long? If so, I might be late to add some more AU for SBS. In the past, when does registration fill up? First day? Second day?

Edit: I signed up all the AU online (2 for myself 2 days ago, 1 for wife today); should I call them to expedite the delivery of them?
Usually within a week to a week and a half. I'm going to be adding a few more this week. Definitely enough time, with SBS being 3 weeks away


That was my question does it ever get full beforehand if yes a day a week?



Last year Dan posted a reminder the day before to register, so it seems it's open till SBS. (Although now that he posted that you could keep adding yourself & spouse again & again let's see if it fills up faster. :) )

Was reading the past few pages and it seems risky to be adding AU.
Would it be likely that 7 authorized users per a card cause a FR?
Didn't understand... What does self AU cards mean? How can you add yourself?
Is it better to give legit people with a DOB and SSN or vice versa?

So for example John Smith adds himself as an AU on one of his own cards??

Make sure it's loaded with as much as you plan on swiping.

Main account plus 4 AUs, so five cards in total.

Putting a period works fine. Example@gmail.com, e.xample@gmail.com, ex.ample@gmail.com...
