Thanks so much. Just not clear what you mean by "personal first, call in approval if necessary, then biz"... I should apply tomorrow morning for personal and if not approved call in and have them send for reconsideration and then apply for business while personal in reconsideration?
Amex doesn't really have reconsideration. Often the app goes pending just because you have to call to verify. Personally, I wouldn't apply for biz until personal is approved.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

No. Get the personal approved before you move on to the biz.

Why personal more imp? And both bonuses expire tomorrow afternoon, so how can I do both if Im not approved for personal?

If you're not approved, you can't.
Better to do personal first, being as you don't really have a biz (I'm guessing).

Do have a little business but I guess personal better anyway (smaller min spend req)... Want to apply personal now but not sure what cutoff time is for pull on same day? Does it go by Amex (Mountain Time) or Experian (not sure what time zone)?

A legitimate business with the filings and paperwork to prove it, or selling on Amazon on the side?
Don't worry so much about the pulls, you can call Experian to combine.

I'd do both SPG (personal first, call in approval if necessary, then biz), and forget about EDP, which isn't going anywhere, for now.

If someone is getting an SPG with plans to actually stay at Starwood properties, the SPG Biz is much more valuable.  If getting for transferable points, not a big difference unless you have a legitimate biz, in which case the AF is deemed a business expense for tax purposes.

Thanks. So I say the app went into pending and cleared the next day and for some reason posted as two pulls?
Just to be clear, these calls they are telling you about are to the CU not to Amex.

Think away the box.

Got approved for Personal but don't have my SPG number yet. Is it a problem that I won't put it in application and then they will create a second SPG account for me?
