Did your scores go down dramatically (or just enough) since you were approved for your other Amex cards? Amex seems to be very accepting of current cardholders to opening new products as long as they fall within their scoring and income guidelines. I would assume your scores are a little too low, but I could be wrong. The hard pull mixed with the denial reason doesn't point in the right direction.

I guess approved with a 1K limit. Guess is the operative word here, but with having the Plat, I would have thought the denial would have happened. Since it has not, I guess approved. The 500 limit is typically reseved for people they take a flyer on, but since you already have cards, I think the 1K limit will prevail. Best of luck!

Score went up 30 points to 650, from the Hilton Approval.  The Corporate office called me today and told me it was a Decline, same reason, score too low.
