That's a great feat right there! Good job on the CLI humu!

Thank you, taekwon!
Nice CLI!
I'm new to Amex. I have the regular old Blue ($500) EDP ($1000) and SPG ($1500)
I use the EDP for everything...it's replaced my debit card. I use the Blue sometimes...usually at restraunts since it is only 1 point for everything, and the SPG was used to book a few hotle stays. I pay them all to zero every week.
Hopefully I can 3x all of them at 61 days and combine the Blue and EDP.

Thank you, mikeyj!
You might want to be aware that you can only receive a CLI on ONE card per 6 month time period with Amex. Unfortunately, you will not be able to receive a CLI for more than one card at your 61 day mark.
Amex cards also have to be over one year old to be able to combine (usually 13 full statements).
You may wish to read the Amex CLI Guide for additional information.
I've heard both...that the 3x at 61 days is per card...and for one card only....and I've gotten both answers from chat representtives.
Either way, I plan on going for the CLI on my EDP as it's my go to. Starwood will probably get much more use over the holidays. The worst they can say is no when I go for the CLI's right?

Humuhumu is right about this, they'll only let you get a CLI on one card every six months... but if you're interested in 'testing the waters' I would just advise you to first go for a CLI on the card you want it on the most.
Unfortunately Amex CSRs are known for giving information that's not quite on-the-mark. (Note that an exception is the myFICO member Pooka, who is an Amex employee and is absolutely fantastic).
Also note that once your donor account is 13 months old you can move the credit line to another card, and this is not considered a CLI (at least from what others have reported). This is the one way some people are said to 'beat' the one CLI per six month 'rule'.
Sweet CLI!
You've done very well with them Hum.
Congrats! with continued success as the road moves forward for you.
Congrats, I have the same plan, to bring up my BCP to a decent limit of like 7k to 9k to stay under the radar with Amex.
