No, the Delta Gold Card is not a charge card, like some Amex cards are. It's a regular credit card with a pre-set spending limit that allows you to carry a balance between months.

The Delta Gold Card does not offer cell phone insurance. Cell phone insurance on other cards reimburses the cost of repairing or replacing a damaged or stolen phone if a cardholder regularly pays the phone bill with the card, though it's not a benefit commonly offered by credit card issuers.

American Express baited me into using the card more and more by having a very competitive APR on their finance charge. They kept raising my credit limit and I continued using the card heavily. Then they raised my APR by 50% to an outrageous rate of 19%. At one point I had an 11% rate. There is no one to talk to about this problem. They trapped me into have a very high finance charge. Totally unethical by American Express. Don't be trapped like me. Consumer beware!

I applied while booking a Delta flight with the offer that if the card was issued I could pay for the flight with the card. The offer indicated that card information would be provided for the booking of the flight and there was a $200 statement credit with the first statement. I was approved within a few minutes, however all I received in the email from Amex was the last 5 digits of the card number with the disclosures. I called customer service which took a few minutes to get through and ask why I didn’t get the card info needed to complete the booking. The rep was polite but hard to understand so obviously an offshore call center. She didn’t know why I didn’t receive the info the offer said I should get upon approval and kept telling me to “update my email”. As there was only one seat left in the flight so I paid with Discover and cancelled the account. Wasted an hour with this BS late at night. Oddly enough a rep answered after two rings when I stated “cancel my account” and she spoke very good english. So if you want to get right through to a rep tell that damn computer that answers your call “cancel account”.... it was a p!ss poor experience.

Legit trash. It’s been 10 days but the gold card is not here. When I applied, it says that it’s expedited for 2-3 days. At this point I’m counting days till this card gets here. What a trash service. Should’ve gone with other airlines.

I absolutely love this Delta Sky Gold credit card. When I signed up , I received the 40,000 bonus miles after spending 1,000. Which was not a problem because I use this card for everyday use to earn the miles. Here are some of my pros:
Instant available credit after making payment ( I love this because I use this card a lot and pay it instantly so I am constantly receiving miles)
No penalty for going over limit (there was an issue with a payment method I used and it put me way over my limit)
Bonus miles for groceries( this feature increased to 4x during Covid-19 which i very much appreciated)
Alerts are appreciated ( I get alerts for credits, alarming purchase, overages, and more)
Customer service is readily available and has always resolved my issues
The only con I have with this card is the fact that they changed the benefits of the card shortly after i got it. This gold delta card use to have the benefits of sky lounge but took that away. Kinda of a bummer

Verified CustomerI was skeptical about applying for this card ... after applying for it when WalletHub told me that my Approval Odds were VERY GOOD/Excellent. Last year this time of year I was denied only because my credit history was fairly new with only having a Discover Chrome Card which was opened 5 months prior and a Capital One 8 months prior even though my credit scrore was good ... Fast Forward a year later and I have established credit history by not missing any payments in in turn have added yet another Wells Fargo Visa card. So after using the Amex PreQualify tool for several weeks i was approved for a Variety of Amex's but was nervous to apply for the card. My Experian Score is a 770 up over 110 points from April 2018 and since Amex Hard Pulls from Experian .. I though why not ... Submitted that application and was instantly approved for a Gold Delta Amex with a starting credit limit of $6000. Merry Christmas to me ... :)

Having the worst customer service experience EVER and I just received the card YESTERDAY! In the airport, when I applied for my card, I was promised benefits that correspond to a Platinum Card but only received a "gold card". When I called Sky Miles Club personnel (Philip and his manager, Tessa) to complain about being misled, I was told that all I had to do was call AMEX and they would automatically "upgrade" me to a Platinum card (which is $250/yr charge vs $99). So when I called AMEX to make this "upgrade" happen, I was told by Leah and her manager, Charmaine, that I could NOT automatically be upgraded to a Platinum card until a year has passed. (Um, hello, I am offering to pay you $150 more, I have excellent credit, and I make plenty of money to qualify). THEN they had the nerve to suggest I get TWO cards, a Gold AND a Platinum card (two separate accounts) and stated that I could qualify for a DIFFERENT Platinum card right away. So they are trying to manipulate me into having TWO credit cards- DIFFERENT accounts!! If this isn't deliberate, fraudulent customer service, I do not know what is. All because I wanted to simply have access to the Sky Club, as I travel with Delta all the time. Correction: I USED to travel with Delta all the time. Sorry Delta, you took two hours from my morning...for nothing...I have no desire to give you business any longer.

Terrible experience! I signed up for the American Express Delta Gold Card online promo which promised 60,000 miles after spending $3,000 in the first 3 months. During the first month after receiving the card I noticed that they had granted me 30,000 miles. I called customer surface and was told they would open an inquiry which would take up to 2 or 3 billing cycles. I called back a month later and was told that I would be granted the additional miles after I spent the $3,000 threshold required in the offer. After spending the $3,000 I called and was told that I would receive the additional miles after the billing cycle ended. when the billing cycle ended I called and was told that they were not going to grant me the miles promised. BAIT and SWITCH- DON'T sing up for this card!

I opened an Amex card back in May 2018, everything was good until July. My act was closed out! Nobody called me or said anything. I didn't even know may account was closed until i checked my mailbox when i came back in town. I needed to book a trip ASAP! But i don't have any account anymore. Nobody could help me when i called into Customer Service Saturday. They just transferred me around and around until they just hung up on me. After a hour i talk with someone in the fraud department which was the manager and she was the only that could really help me. But i had to wait until today (which is Monday) to get the (special team) whoever that is.... to active my account again. I'm so pissed!!!! The flight has went up and someone needs to fix this problem. I used this card for my business. Oh i forgot to tell you how they sent me a new card in the mail that they cancel before i got it! lol Help Jesus
