Re: Amex application

You can, but they will put the 2nd app on hold for 5 days. AMEX only allows you to apply for 1 revolver every 5 days.

Yes, they will let you apply for 1 charge card and 1 credit card (revolver) at the same time. If it was within 24 hours you probably can get away with the same HP.

Congrats 2X

Why did you choose the standard gold vs the PRG?

No $100 air credit to offset the AF

On Amex site it doesn't show a bonus did you get one? 

3X instead of 2X points on PRG

 

Just curious that's all Smiley Wink

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Re: Amex application

I'm with myjourney - kind of a head scratcher why anyone would want Gold over PRG...

True, what's done is done.  Smiley Happy

 

The good news, though, is that you can still apply for the PRG later on and you should still get the new account bonus since it's a different product from the regular Gold card.  Just remember to not PC to the PRG, and do a cold-app when the time comes!  Smiley Wink

 

FWIW, I made a similar mistake last year when I applied and was approved for the Green card.  I canceled it back in March, and got the PRG last month.  Note that you can have both at the same time; I closed the Green when I did to avoid its annual fee.  Smiley Happy

Re: Amex application

As far as applying for Amex, what score would get me approved?  I so want an Amex card.
