I applied for the Costco AMEX with the wife's Costco card knowing that the membership was expired, we thought it wasn't a big deal and that we could renew right after. Got a pending message and said to renew it first and call back with the member #. I decided to get a brand new member number under my name instead as the expired card was under my wife's and applied with my info.
Anyways, we got the executive gold (same as the one we already had) for $110, called AMEX and they said still in pending/hold because i just applied/apprved for PRG and Delta and to check back in 3 days after the systems releases the hold.
Is this usually a denial? If so, can i cancel Costco membership and get my $110 back? We do shop at Costco but want it also for 3% cash back on gas.
Thanks in advanced!

Not a denial but the system does hold apps if too many too close together. Yes you can cancel the costco membership anytime and get a refund. I love their refund policy
