Approved for AMEX Bonvoy Brilliant , Bye Chase!

CreditPacMan — Mon, 27 Sep 2021 19:23:01 GMT

I have not had a good experience with AMEX over they years, mostly stuck at $1000 SL for all of the accounts I opened with them. In 2018 I closed all the accounts.

Last week I applied and was approved for the Gold card.

I have just been approved for the Bonvoy Brilliant card .. and to my surprise my SL is $10,000 (my highest with AMEX ever).

I just called and closed my Chase Marriott card.

Nice SL.

Was there an incident with Chase for your closure?

Not for the Marriott card; after I paid it off I anticipated they will CLD it so I applied for the AMEX and once approved, I immediately closed my Chase card (along with two other Chase cards).

Congrats on your approval. If you don't mind, could you provide FICO score DP?

I've tried to apply (existing AMEX customer) for the BCP twice and got declined cause of FICO score. Heard the "partner" cards are a little more lenient as opposed to the "core" cards.

At the time of approval it was 705. Took a hit with new inquiries and accounts that made it drop to 680 (and I also got approved for the delta reserve with the new score).
