AmEx CLI or app for New?

[stagefoursurvivor]

Either of my two revolvers will be eligible for the 61 day CLI end of January and I plan to app for another revolver & charge card(2 for 1).

The question is, should I get the CLI or app for new cards first? Is one option more likely to derail the second?

Shouldn't make too much of a difference as long as your profile supports it.

Mine is only 2000 dammit lol

Got my answer, although not the one I wanted, 3X CLI...declined. Might have been different if they'd done a SP or HP.

My creditsesame jumped 76 points which is an "indicator" of where my CRs are headed

You can't rely on credit sesame. Two different models. I lost 90 points there for closing account. Really. I lost 0 on fico. Why don't you do your self a service and look at your ficos. Sesame is not indicator of nothing except experian plus scores. Even experian themselves went back to fico. Different scoring model. Sorry for your decline. You can try again in 90 days. My friend was also declined his 3x cli.

That is amazing. Your AMEX and I were born the same year... I hope one day to be able to backdate 30 years! Wowza.
