pre-approved for 3 amex cards, and got approved for all 3 of them

delta gold, hilton honors, and gold amex all 3 popped on my page, after approved for both, I read a post of someone getting all 3 approved...so I tried the 3rd one, while logged onto the site.

 

maybe this helps with data points.

So, how much do you have to spend to make the bonus payouts?

Thanks for the inspiration...I have a few weeks left before my 5 year anniversary of filing. Dying to get a BCP as it is perfect for my spending profile. I'd consider the Gold if they don't cough up the BCP, but that's a distant second.

Great results OP - Gold and Surpass are two of my most-beneficial cards. I love em. Congrats!

Vic6string, make sure you wait til 61 months have passed - that extra month past 5 years is a well known breakpoint for Amex approvals with BK.

Thanks. I was waiting until the month after anyway as that extra month will drop me from 3 inquiries to 2 in the past 12 months.

I have those three cards - for HH and DG for me last fall it was $1k each, and for Gold (which SUB spend I finished last week) it was $2k. All were in the standard 3 month timeframe.

Congrats OP, now get to work on those SUBs! Smiley Happy
