AMEX platinum takes 7-10 days for new accounts as well, and they wouldn't expedite even though I've already had a corporate card for years. They used every bit of those 7-10 days. But again, replacements are overnighted.
I've heard of people receiving a Platinum expedited for new accounts, more often than stories about 7-10 days, actually.
My AMEX new account cards have shown up in 5 business days or less, but typically 5 business days; however, I didn't pay for a premium card either.
