I met with my Fidelity investement advisor yesterday to go over the usual portfolio stuff and while we were discussing different products, his system displayed I had two Fidelity card pre-approvals (the VISA and AMEX). So, I mentioned that I already had the AMEX (plus other BOA CCs) but then after looking a bit closely he confirmed it was for the Private Client version (didn't know you could have both!). Needless to say, my arm was twisted, again 
It went into pending status, then a quick call from his office to the Dedicated UW team got it all sorted out in less than 5 minutes (address/ID verification) - $20,000 approval. Then, we had a discussion about the $200 AF and he was going to get it waived once the account # was generated (I have substantial assets with BOA and ML/Fidelity). So, now I'm considering (possibly) combining both Fidelity AMEX CLs - the UW analyst (who gave me his ext#) mentioned it could be done and likely won't have to do a 2nd HP (approval was EX and CLIs/reallocations are typicaly TU). The account showed up this morning already linked to my existing FIA profile. BOA is just amazing!
Sorry joedtx, couldn't pass up the AF waiver
***Update as of 5/20/15***
So, per Creditaddict's nudge and guidance in the most recent posts, I decided to follow up with the UW contact I spoke with a couple days ago about consolidating both Fidelity cards into one account and keeping the Private Client AMEX. I had also asked about a CLI to $50K (just to even things out I suppose) and after a back and forth for about 25 minutes while he reviewed the overall BOA/FIA/ML relationship, etc - approved for consolidation and new CL $50,000. Thanks Creditaddict
Wow! Congrats!!

Thanks Irish At first I had to consider the AF (besides the other CCs with Afs I just got approved recently), but after he was willing to get me the AF waived, I was like SOLD - what do I need to press!
