There is no guarantee they will keep you.   They have dumped a lot of customers who owed them $0.   Apparently they are still skiddish.  

 

Consider whether the 40% which is out of SOL is worth the risk. .

Re: old amex account

you can probably increase your chances of getting another card with amex by paying the balance in full.
