conversation: User (itikhvin): "I recently got my first card in the US (AMEX Premier Rewards Gold) as well as an ITIN. I've now been told by AMEX they cannot add it to my account... will I still be building history with no SSN or ITIN reporting to the bureau?\n\nI thought the whole idea behind ITIN would be that it would help me establish history by linking it to my new US AMEX"
