Hilton Amex App

hi all,

Just a general question, Is the Hilton Amex easier to get than a straight Amex card like bcp or is it all the same?

For me personally, The Hilton HHonors and Delta gold were easy to get. I was denied for all the others multiple times.

My ex Fico was 678 at the time I apped. That's what they pulled. Some have gotten them with lower scores.

The trick was I applied for the green charge card first, then the other 2. People say that getting a charge card is best first, since they're easy to get your foot in the door, then apply for a revolver. So I have all 3, with the revolvers $2000 each.
