Just did my first 3bm in a while.  SPG Bus and personal, and Gold.  Got SPG bus and Gold instantly.  Waiting on personal.  What are my chances if I already have one?

Honestly, a little lazy to search through the forum.

Anyone wanna remind me, is the verdict in that a 3bm with mixed business and personal cards combines for only one pull?

YMMV (sorry, but it is...)

But to the extent it helps, I just did a mixed successfully in the last month.

K. Appreciate it.

So I am gonna do MB Plat (2nd time around) and SPG business (first time) and I currently have the SPG personal.

What's the process for the SPG regarding SPG numbers? I put in my current one and it will combine?

If you've already earned that bonus (and no, consumer and biz are not the same bonus) then leave it blank.

Only spg bonus I ever received is the one time for SPG personal. So I never received bonus for business. Should I put in my SPG number and it will go into same pot?

It should, yes. Different card products.

You're too close to midnight, if they use Eastern time (and/or go by your time zone) your pulls won't even be on the same day

You're welcome to try for another two if you can handle the additional inquiry. You can always tell recon you applied for the wrong cards and/or were having computer problems.

Is that only within 12 months? I had the biz already but I canceled it a few years ago...

You think there's no chance it will be considered the same day?

who said it's a 1 day rule ? Maybe anything within a certain time frame gets consolidated

For some reason people here decided that it works like that.

BTW has anyone ever gotten a card canceled and then reconsidered? Or does it mean they didnt even pull for those apps?

[Jay the PRESIDENT]

what does "in progress" mean for app status?

[JEWDA]

It prob means your app is on hold. Call them.

Update:
Called Amex, comes out they didn't even do a hard pull for any of them and they declined the 1st one based on a soft pull done in the begining of August. She told me the other 2 were not canceled but they were on hold and a hard pull was not done yet. So I told her to send them all in now for a review and they should do a hard pull on all of them, hoping I'll get one pull. Now showing In Progess.
