I will, but I am wondering why it's not written up at all. The iron rule across DDF seems like it's a no-no

I tried moving over credit line from my Delta card to my SPG card, the rep on the line told me that it will require a credit pull, I spoke to two representatives both told me the same thing , is this true?

Does moving over credit from one card to another require a credit pull with American Express?

Ok, I got the CL shifted, no credit  pull required.  Some reps are clueless, (wish someone from DDF would of weighed in)

you can just do it online, no need to involve any reps.

Anyone know of a workaround for referring a biz card even if you don't currently have one?

Assuming I don't fly much, and recently got the Barclay's card to replace Chase Freedom, is there a real benefit to applying for the AMEX Everyday to replace SPG? Thx

AF just hit. How has Amex SPG retention been about waiving recently? Any tips?

Just to add a data point.... I closed my Skymiles business AND consumer cards last month when they wouldn't waive the AF on either of those.

Who cares if they don't give retention?
