Multiple American Express cards?

[Anonymous]

There are 2 amex cards I wanted, is it possible to call in and app both with only one inquiry? I was going to do them online and then thought maybe I can save burning an extra inquiry.

I know you can apply for one of their credit cards and a charge card with one hard pull. I was able to get both my PRG and BCE with only one inquiry.

Charge and credit card, yes. For two credit cards they often put one of them on hold for five days before they finish processing. If you're approved for the first, new card apps are often a SP for subsequent apps if you're not approved, but a second card approval most times will be a second HP

Your BK might be a killer. Is it showing on your EX?

If you have a BK, they're not going to approve you until you're 5 years post filing.

My bk does not show on Experian, hence the higher score.
