I've gotten that twice recently. My feeling is that any no language offer is worth taking
Do we need to worry that even w/o language they won't give the bonus if I currently have the card?

How long after closing a platinum card can I reapply for it? (I'm not in it for the sign up bonus...)

IINM you can open again at any time

10 minutes before canceling, during cancelation, 10 minutes after cancelation.. Whatever floats your boat. You're not limited to one at a time.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

I don't know but my concern in that situation is that it would be hard to get through recon if necessary when they see you have the same card open (I could be wrong, it's just a thought). So I close the card and then reapply for the next offer
Don't ask stupid questions and you won't get stupid answers

Are you recommending to cancel it, or just apply for a 2nd one?

If you don't care about signup bonus, and are paying AF anyways? I don't see what you gain by canceling and reopening (it's not great for your score), but whatever floats your boat. If you want 2, signup without canceling. If you don't want 2, cancel. It has no bearing on approval.

I'm afraid you mixed me up with 3 yummy boys. I'm in it ONLY for the bonus; he's not. So for me, what do you suggest?

Canceling the old one or keeping it open will have no impact on approval, IME.

Understood. The question is not re approval, rather if I need to worry that they won't give the bonus if I currently have that exact card - despite the absence of language (as far as I can see).

Just to confirm: Ameriprise Plat is a different product than Plat (for bonus), right?
