Please for the love of mankind don't create any posts that might in any way shape or form cause him to continue his app spree!!!

It has been pretty much proven over and over again with application approvals with Amex aside from being offered the $500 Hard Limit Zync that regular Zync through Plat. will be approved at the same score for all. I have seen Gold Premium Rewards approved with 642 TU (they pulled both EX and TU). It's just more money to Amex with Charge Cards... If they don't want you spending more than $1000 it's not going to matter if you have Zync or Plat. you won't get higher then $1k spending.
And Capital One that is a little closer general rule I think but I have seen 532 get approved for the $300 basic card.
These are all close generalizations.. Nobody can ever say this is the exact score that you need.. you know this.. and being approved for a zync does not mean you will be approved for all the charge cards.. many times we see people who are approved for the zync and then they apply for the plat and are approved as well, but this does not hold true for everybody...
Again. Use this list as a good consensus..
