I did an amex 3bm just now and instantly approved for plat and spg, but it says to call for delta gold, which I happen to have now.
I applied for it because I have the delta for a couple years and figured I won't lose anything if I apply. Do you think it's possible that they'll approve it and shut down the other for me?

anythign's possible. give a good reason why you need a second delta card. doubtful you'd get the bonus though. Keep us updated, especially if you get the bonus.  I just cancelled my delta cards in October and waiting for the year before reapplying. If you get the bonus i might take my chances...

I called them up. They said that he sees I applied to 3 cards so it automatically put the third app on hold. He said I would need to wait 4 business days before calling again to get approved. Either way, he said that my card isn't a year old yet, so I can't get the bonus. I felt like I had it for much longer, but apparently my year is up in 6 more days.

So I figure I'll call up when my year is up and see if they could approve the delta app by closing my current card.

Just opened up delta gold 30K last week and just did $500 AP to meet the spend.
Is it still possible to get matched to 45K? What is best way to go about it?

hmmm...did he actually say that if your card was a year old you could get the bonus?  Seems to be contrary to the t&C of the bonus...

He didn't say I would get it, but that I could try.

Ya sigh. I sm-ed them they said all offers are time bound and this wasn't available when I applied. Oh well.

Update:

I called back today to see if I could be approved for the Delta card. They told me that I was already approved sometime this week, which to me sounds very weird. I still have my other Delta card open and for some reason they approved a second one without me talking to them or trying to convince them to open it while closing my other one. What sounds even weirder to me, is that they told me that it will take a few days to generate numbers for the card before they can send it out.

It's the same offer that's been up since February. Nothing new here.

Was at Freddies last week and Jeff Robertson was saying demand has fallen on some routes below plan, so extra saver award inventory has been automatically kicking in for some closer in bookings.

Not exactly the summer of SkyMiles but hey will take some help there.
