I applied for other cards and leveraged that one for approval.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

If I apply for a business charge card,  will this be any leverage? Or do I need to apply for a consumer credit card

For business credit card like SPG it will work IME. For platinum and gold doubtful.

Bad. Is it possible that after SBS they'll shut accounts down for abusing that ?
my plan all along was to find 3 places and swipe once at each...just think 3 in a row at same place with all my cards is asking for it...

Thats not a problem, change the amount if you're worried. I'm talking about people using hundreds of AU's.

Why is the OBC offer still up on the amex website, if they are shutting people down?

I think this may have been mentioned above, but I'm now hearing confirmed reports that people who were shut down are not able to get approved for other AmEx cards due an "unsatisfactorily maintained previous relationship."
Game changer.  :)
I just found a new supply of forks!

You could lay low until your next round of amex apps and then move the CL and close the card.
My favorite cause: cssy.org

I'm starting to wonder if changing the product is the way to go or better shut it completely.
