The American express Costco card is being discontinued early next year, April 2016.

Very nice!! Amex is the next card in line for me.  I have 7 inquiries and my understanding, that is too many for them. I just hope I can be patient lol

It's not coincidence. Most targeted TE cardholders got a BCE with the same starting limit as their starting limit on the TE.

My TE was just 3X increased to $18K so fingers crossed I get a similar email soon. Be nice to have my BCE go to $18K and the Amex TE convert at the same limit to Citi.

I didn't get the same starting limit on my BCE. My TE card was opened in January with a $5000 limit and raised in March to $15,000. My BCE was prequalified in July for $2000 and I got a 3x cli last month to $6000.

 

They matched my current limit on the TE card today. 


Yeah, I just figured out what the trigger is. It's your limit when the system targeted you. The timing on mine was too close. My TE went to $18K end September and the BCE was issued end of August. 1st statement just hit and the email for the limit increase came. There was a lag. If I had waited to accept the BCE offer and accepted it in September.. my $18K TE card line would have been established for at least a statement.
