Amex card recommendation, but can't get intro offers?

I have a Blue Cash and the Amex Everyday cards

 

I wanted to corroborate if applying for a 3rd amex is a soft pull or HP. 

Also, I tried applying for the Magnet card and received the message that I will not get the intro offers, or APR. 

 

I remember when I applied for the Amex everyday last year, I was getting this pop up stating I was not going to get the intro offer, so I cancelled the application before they pulled credit and somehow the next day I applied again and it did not tell me I was not elegible for the intro offers and took it and got approved AND was able to do a BAl transfer. 

 

I can't remember what I did to work around this pop up, but if you know, I'd grately appreciate it. 

 

I was considering the Magnet card for the intro $150 and 0apr for purchases. Do you have any other suggestions on an Amex card I could try or how to bypass the popup?

 

Thanks

It should be a "SP" if you already have Amex cards.

Just remember the YMMV rule.

 

Cannot give you an answer about getting around the "pop up"

Probably best to just call in or chat, to ask why you are not eligible.
