Amex 61 day CLI, better to call CS or do on line?

[Hightechredneck]

My BCE everyday has reached the 61 day window. Is is better to call and ask for a CLI or do it on line?

Thanks.

Please post your results, usage and all that fun stuff =)

I've read somewhere on here that it doesn't matter much. I plan to submit mine online sometimes in August.

This is just my personal experience: I have tried for the 3x CLI twice with my Amex Delta. Both times, I did it online.

Both times I was denied. I'll try again in the future, this time with a CS. It couldn't hurt to speak with someone real, just my point of view. But either option will hopefully yield good results.

May the Force be with you.

I don't think it makes any difference.  I've had 1 online approval and 2 denials.

No real difference in results, but IMHO, online is faster and more convenient.

Just called ask CLD from 20K to 5K, i spend less than 2k total last year

Can not see myself put more spending on it.

Why anyone want a 5 digit BCE?

I need some head room for my future application with Amex.

You could have always reallocated that CL to a new AMEX, provided both accounts have been open for their required period (donor account at least 13 months, recipient account at least 61 days.

i was rejected CL reallocating because SPG is 3 weeks old and BCE is less than 13 month, but 61 day 3X CLI will be there if i ever need it
