I was recently approved for an American Express BCE.  I've seen lots of folks on these boards with multiple American Express cards and I wonder if I should attempt going the same route.  My question is since I just applied for the BCE in the last week would they do another HP for an additional card or would they use the same HP?  I had 5 HP on my App Spree last week so I obviously don't want to apply for another AmEx if it will result in another HP - could I basically get two cards for one HP?


It would be another HP. IMO you should garden for a bit before going for a revolver. At least 6 months.

After considering the HP, I think that's exactly what I'll do.  Thanks!

This is also a very good reason to wait! Smiley Happy
