Congrats! Maybe you should freeze your reports, this way it'll be an extra step to app and you'll leave the ERTs more time to intervene. On the number of American Express cards, I believe the maximum one person can have is 4 personal revolving and unlimited charge cards at one time.

Congrats but I'm curious as to why all the Blues? Seems like you are shortchanging your cash back unless you are meeting the caps.

Re: Approved Blue from American Express..

Congrats 

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?
