lol I haven't fully PIF but just about. I should have never settled to begin with, I made the debt so I should pay the debt.

Call them!!!! Now don't try for a cli until it's completely paid off... Ive seen ops get approved with old debts from Amex but then denied the 61day 3xcli bc of the old debt lol!
So I called and spoke with a new card rep. The rep said that my account terms had not fully generated yet but was able to tell me the estimated CL on my Blue card will be around $3,500 and no estimate can be given for APR.
Update:
I received my congratulations letter from AmEx today stating my FICO score which they obtained from Experian. As of November 4 it was a 702. The key factors that contributed to my FICO score:
Serious delinquency
Length of time accounts have been established
Proportion of loan balances to loan amounts is too high
Too many inquiries last 12 months
APR: Still unknown
Credit Limit: $2,500
