Long story short - I woke up this morning to an email stating that my application was approved!! (I didn't even have to call) The CL is only $1.4k but it's all good. This is my first Amex application and I was approved!! I travel often so I am looking forward to earning points towards free rooms. And I only need to spend $1k to get 75k bonus points. WOOOOHOOOO!!!
