Hi,

My last payment was in April and although I haven't received my certificate (I am with Grant Thornton btw), I received a promotion a couple of weeks ago and have been told that I may require a Corporate American Express due to the travel and expenses I will incur as part of my new role,

Would I be rejected in applying for the Corporate Card? Would my Company see my credit history??

If its corporate then it is a business credit card and its the business which is liable for the debt, effectively all you are is a named card holder so it should not be an issue.

You may get personally credit checked, but that is probably unlikely unless your employer's insist on this.

It's like a supplementary card on an existing account. They might check you exist but the main account holder is the one responsible. If anything they'll do an I'd check but I doubt even that
Don't make life more difficult by giving information that is not asked for.

Thanks for the advice. I've put the application in... let's see what happens!
