We are sorry, you are not able to apply for an Additional Card online. Please call the number on the back of your Card if you have additional inquiries.

I'm getting this message when trying to add AUs to either my of DH's Everyday cards. We already have 3 (unactivated but with SSN) AUs on each card. I'm able to add AUs to other Amex cards on those accounts.

I had the same question... I added myself several times as an AU on my own account.
I only paid 15% by switching to dansdeals

Blue Cash card can only have "3 active additional cards" as per CSR. I am going to HUCA, but would like to get some reassurance.

When you call to add yourself or spouse as AU, does the CSR get suspicious? Can't they see that you are adding yourself? Can I add myself online too?

Sure. AU is made for a spouse among others, what's there to get suspicious about ?
