She got it ! Instant answer on line. Delta Amex Gold, but only $2,000 CL. However, the offer is spend $2,000 in 3 months for 50,000 miles, and $50 statement credit after first purchase. Plus annual fee waived first year. Sounds good to me.
Question: DW’s cc card just arrived, but it has a new Skymiles number on it (she already has a existing Skymiles number/account). My first reaction is to call. However, is there any benefit to her having 2 Skymile accounts?

I would rather combine them. It's Better to have them all in one account.

+1 plus the points will post right away because it’s an active account. (Assuming there’s some points there)

I would wait until the points post before playing around

Please explain for the uninitiated what you guys are talking about and how it would effect my decision of whether call Delta about the new Delta Skymiles number. Btw DW’s existing account only has about 5,000 Delta Skymiles. The new SU will be 50,000+ soon.

If so does it need to be Points posted by Amex that the bonus should post or ‏is it good as long is there any point in the account?

Ok, I just  corrected the Skymiles account number with a customer service representative via the Amex website online chat (where you can impersonate your spouse without changing your voice). He assured me that both the existing miles and the new bonus miles will credited to that pre-existing account.

If my husband had the gold business but forgot to spend the required amount to get the bonus so he cancelled the card a couple of months ago can he reapply now and get the bonus?

No.
Amex' terms for the sign up bonus (unless you have a "no language" offer) say you can't get the bonus if you held the card before, which indicates in your lifetime. (rumor has it that equals 7 years.)

I got an offer in the mail is this a no language offer? I don't see anything stating if I held the card before?
