Fidelity Amex

[JSS3]

Saw a post earlier saying it can be used to load Serve. Moreover, it's a 2% card(with a CMA account). I am interested in this and the AARP(3% restaurants) for future apps. I recently got in with BofA.

Just finished googling posts about this card and they all, more or less, agree it's elusive. The underwriting is said to be extremely strict. I opened a Fidelity account earlier in preparation to apply months from now. Maybe March of 2016 when my inquiries on EX will be like 11.

Any other tips/stories Fidelity holders can share?

I have no baddies. I'll probably have a couple hundreds in my account by the time I app.

I reconned mine with tons of INQs an new accounts but I had a good relationship with BofA

[JSS3]

Did you already have the CMA account or just credit cards with BofA?

[icyhot]

Yes both

[JSS3]

And what are a "ton" of inquiries?

[icyhot]

Like 27 on my TU

BoA is EX for me.

It's always TU for me but it's actually FIA that's pulling it so they may be different. I know they pulled TU for the app an CLI

[JSS3]

Well, that would be better as I have less on there and will have way less in March. Do you have huge savings in your CMA account?

Applied with clean reports and modest income, got them to pull TU. Account is 10 months old now CL is at 26500.
