Very true magic. i do have a few inquiries to spare yet. i only got 4 on my Tu. the rest however i got over 11 each. hmm. hard not to go for it. thats why sometimes these boards are full of temptation.

However if they do close that window for new applicants (This Is Diner's Club International) you wouldn't want to have some regrets that you didn't get in while the chance was right there in front of you at the time.
I know you applied magic. which one did you get or did you get both?
congrats

Both.
It only took all of a single day after the premier card hit the mailbox to go ahead and throw caution to the wind and shoot for the 2nd one (with 3X ). Already sent off the $95AF plus some balance used so far to get that part out of the way. I figured once the pre-fee is dismissed on the "Elite" ASAP, that AF will prove not so intimidating considering the SL.

ok. i will at least wait until i get card in hand. may do it as well. as ive seen others now app for the elite as well. im not really concerned with the AF as i plan to travel quite a bit in 2015. if i don't get fair deal in my mind can always cancel after a year.
but i am keeping the premier no matter what.
