Opening new amex

[Ups77]

I was wondering if it was to early to open a new amex account. I opened blue cash preferred on March 5. Backed dated to 96. Also any suggestions on another of there products.

What's your score and profile like? Other cards, limits? 

I opened a new Amex 4 months after opening my first account with them, no problem.

All scores over 725. Ex one recent pull which was amex. Other 2 pulls 6 months plus old. 1% utilization.

You should be fine with a new application as along as your credit profile supports it.

Agreed. I would go for it. What other Amex cards do you have, and what type of rewards are you looking for? Travel, cash back?

It's not simply a matter of time but a matter of your credit.  From your other posts it sounds like you'd be fine but keep in mind that we're not AmEx underwriters.

That's it though? How'd you manage to get it backdated to 96 then? I would go for it though.
