AMEX Automatically Allocates Limits?

Geez, I'm on a post spree today.

 

Anyways. I didn't know that AMEX will allocate part of your limit from one card to open another. They split my Blue Sky's original $25k to open my new BCE, as detailed below in my siggy.

 

I've never seen/heard of this before without calling in, so figured I'd throw it out there.

Yes, this happens in some cases, always slightly surprising not to be asked!   They did the extreme version of this when I got my BCP in 2012.  I had a Blue Sky that I had forgotten about, so they closed that,  and opened the BCP with the old CL + $5K
