Back in with AMEX (finally)

Thank you! I already earned 2 of the 3, PIF before the statement cuts. Thanks to the advise of everyone here. Although, the $3000 does seem like a lot to spend.

It's $3,000 over 3 months, right?  That should make it a little more manageable.  If there are any monthly bills that you can put on the card without incurring additional fees, do it!  I run my car insurance, water, electric, internet, and local property taxes through my cards; you can probably do the same.

I was in the same situation, I was blacklisted for 10 years, finally got back in. I have the Delta Gold, SPG and the AMEX Business Platinum, enjoy it and congratulations

Yes, it's $3000 in 3 months. The others were $2000 and $1000 in 3 months. I ran everything possible through the cards and it worked. I think it's the thought of spending $3000.
