I have 2 personal revolvers , Amex Gold and Hilton Honors Surpass. I have 2 business cards, the Green and Amazon.
I received SUBs on all. All accounts remain open and in good standing. I have never used Amex for a balance transfer.
Yes, I took advantage of 4 welcome offers. Just last month I paid a $95 annual fee.
WTH?
Within what timespan did these applications and subs occur?

@mikesonthemend.. It means that Amex is saying No SUB soup for you ,
they are willing to give you the card with no perks.
I have had this happen to me before.
Yup me to! @M_Smart007
Amex has me in the time out room for a little while.,😂

Was the most recent app within 90 days? I found the following info:
"Another important restriction to keep in mind is that you cannot get a sign-up bonus if you’ve gotten a new Amex card within 90 days of your application. While you can apply for two cards within a three month period, you probably won’t want to because you won’t get bonuses for both cards."

@KLEXH25, Good Find!
.. I believe this is exactly what happened to Me.
I had opened a Hilton and a Cash Magnet ..received both SUB's and then went for The Schwab Amex Investor card,
That is when I got the pop-up for no SUB. I took the card because It had value to me without the SUB.
I got an outstanding SCL , Low APR and I wanted the card to start aging.
But ..they did honor the 0% purchases for 6 months.
I had 2 charge cards and hit 7 revolvers. (Not including business cards) .. No Soup for me ever since
7 Revolvers?? I thought you could only have 4.

I got my gold and Delta Platinum almost back to back. Got both subs over the last couple of weeks.

You can have as many as your income and credit can support. Most people can't get past 5 though.
