I logged on to Am Ex today and got a pop up saying I was pre-approved to upgrade from BCE to BCP, at the bottom was a button saying apply for upgrade now. It also offered another $150 bonus after $1000 spend. Does anyone know if they do a hard pull for this? Is it considered a new account when reporting? How about a CLI when you upgrade? Thanks

I upgraded to the BCP from the BCE earlier this month, there is no hard pull for this and the account stays the same on your credit report. I actually got a CLI when I upgraded since my account was exactly a year old. Have you gotten a CLI on the BCE within the last 6 months?
Wow thats pretty cool, I didn't know they would give the $150 bonus after already getting the $100 bonus on BCE, annual fee is 75 or 95? I specifically avoided the BCP because they are increasing the annual fee and I also dont do a lot of grocery shopping.

Thanks for the info. I logged back in and didn't get the pop up again. Maybe I'll get a letter. I did just get a 3x CLI last month. I've had the card about 5 months.

It was the $95 fee... I opened the BCE with a $150 after $500 plus $300 in credit toward cell phone bill (10%back up to $300 for 6 months).
