How do I get off Amex black list?

The only way to know if you’re off the blacklist is to apply. If you get an inquiry, you’re off the list and eligible. If you get auto-denied and don’t receive an inquiry, you’re still blacklisted. Luckily, you paid what you owed (not settled, I hope) so you’ll be off the blacklist sooner than later.

You may be better off letting an old collection fade away if you can’t pay it in full. Resurrecting a collection account with a payment or settlement freshens it on your credit report and can harm your FICO score. Note that completely repaying an old debt won’t harm your FICO score.
