what are most people doing ? plat+gold or just plat
I did plat and gold, with plat a second before. Hoping that since before the apps I didn't have either that I will be able to get both.

YES
I've been told that before when cancelling a Plat. I've still managed to open up two more Plats with bonuses since then and just applied for a 3rd. This may be a good reason to cancel the card via SM instead of calling.

Just did a 2bm with the Plat and SPG.  The Plat is pending and they'll notify me within 14 days.  The SPG was denied right away  :( :'(

I am eligible for the offer, but i failed a FR from amex a few weeks ago, so no point in applying :( - I really wish i could have this card, and the points.
I feel ya.. tough stuff.  For how long are you damned?  (OT, but what do you think was the trigger?).

I just did a 2bm less one month ago, debating if I should go for this.. How long do you folks give this offer to last?

Did you have any business card?  Or only personal?
Are you still able to use the cards you already have?

Should I wait for the reply from the Plat before calling recon about the SPG? Or since ones a charge card and ones a credit card it makes no difference and one wont help the other?
