I would say that good luck finally came your way, not that it ran out...

 

Congrats on the new card!

Thinking the same thing!  Luck running out usually refers to good luck going away.

 

Regardless, Congratulations!  It sounds like you have waited a long time for this and I hope you enjoy the card!

 

Edit: Looks like you don't want the card after reading posts below.  I'm so confused!

Re: my luck ran out!!

I kept apping just to screw with amex, i dont need the card at all. Ill open the bcp in jan and get rid of the prg after the bonus hits. I have hidden lines with the select and my wifes pd cards. So a charge card dosent do anything besides keep amex on my report.
