Amex softing...

Options

For you other Amex cardholers, how much does Amex soft you? I was pretty surprised last night when looking over a fresh Experian report to see that Amex softs us about twice a month.  Twice a month, every month, since our first Amex was opened in '10.

Amex Green NPSL, Amex BCE $19.7k, Amex HH Surpass $11.3k, Amex Business Gold NPSL, Chase Ink Bold $15k (flex) Chase United $5k, Chase Sapphire Preffered $21k, Citi Diamond $13.3k, Citi TY Preferred $10.5k, Virgin Atlantic Amex $8k, Discover Motiva $6k, Boa World Elite $10k, US Bank Visa $4.1k, GE Amazon $3.4k, GE Lowes $6k, BillMeLater $4k, Target $.2k, CapOne $.5k Von Maur NPSL,
