Amex softing...

For you other Amex cardholers, how much does Amex soft you? I was pretty surprised last night when looking over a fresh Experian report to see that Amex softs us about twice a month.  Twice a month, every month, since our first Amex was opened in '10.

Amex Green NPSL, Amex BCE $19.7k, Amex HH Surpass $11.3k, Amex Business Gold NPSL, Chase United $5k, Chase Sapphire Preffered $21k, Citi Diamond $13.3k, Virgin Atlantic Amex $8k, Discover Motiva $6k, Boa World Elite $10k, US Bank Visa $4.1k, GE Amazon $3.4k, BillMeLater $4k, Target $.2k, CapOne $.5k Von Maur NPSL,

I just pulled my experian report, they were not softing me that much. Maybe 2-3 times last year? Once this year so far.

In my wallet: Amex PRG & Zync, Amex BCE (19.2k), Chase Freedom (5k), PSECU Visa/PSL (20k)
Current Scores: Equifax: 738 (Fako) TransUnion: 721 (Fico) Experian: 717 (Fico)
