Did the spending threshold get lower this time around? I signed up for the cardand I believe that I have to spend 10k in 4 months. Not everyone gets FR'd, right? What do they ask for when one gets FR'd?

Ofcourse not everyone but they can ask for anything from tax returns with the business name on it to bank statements etc

Gotcha. What happens if one cannot show it? They shut down the card?

It's February 20, 2014 not 2013. Read the fine print and you'll see

Its YMMV but people have generally had success when doing 2bm with gold/plat for personal. Don't see why it would be different for biz

Depends on your credit history and your spending pattern with Amex.
Love me or hate me. I still love you.

Does spending pattern on other cards count?

They should have a pre-approval process, where you ask if certain behavior will trigger them.  ;D
