I have their Blue point card. I'm thinking either their BCE card or Citi's Thank You Preferred.

BCE since you won't take a hp if denied and Citi's points are terrible!

See you guys are very helpful/useful Yes, American Express is quite the catch to me. If the points are not good then that Citi card may not be worth the HP.
OP,
I merged your threads together because they were similiar in nature. In the future, to avoid confusion - please refrain from posting similar or duplicative threads.
Thank you~ Lexie, myFICO Moderator.
How long should I wait before applying for BCE? In all honesty.

Tread lightly...asking about how to app when you're in the garden alerts MJ and the ERT...lol!!!
I haven't applied for anything in a month and a half. Just wondering when it would be an ideal time to apply for BCE. Amex is already offering me hotel stuff so I'm happy to say that I really prefer Amex over TD Bank.
Why not just product change your Blue (which isn't that great) to a BCE or BCP and save yourself an inquiry. Having more than one Blue card with AMEX is counterproductive since you can only request CLI for one card every six months.

Only you can know when it's time to apply.
Do you need that second Amex?
Do you want it more than anything else?
Do you think your reports are clean enough?
Do you honestly truly want that other card?
Decide for yourself.
Besides, it's just a credit card application, not a marriage proposal. It's not worth fretting over.

I agree, it's not worth fretting over. And yeah I've been wanting it for a bit, and I like the idea of having a points and cash back card with them. Where if I had BCE and kept my Blue I'd have both. I have too many inquiries right now. Will wait till around the Summer and Fall time to apply.. sounds like it would give me a better shot of approval.
