    Really would like the SPG BIZ card but I already have the following Experian Inquiry: All PERSONAL cards within last year-

    Chase 7/14/12
    B of A 7/12/12
    Amex Hilton – 6/15/12
    Chase 5/13/12
    Chase 11/13/11
    Should I wait or do you think I have a good chance of approval? Credit score of 779 on Experian
    Or would AMEX check Tranunion if i freeze Experian?

    Had I known about the 30k SPG AMEX Biz card will be back, I would have held back on my Recent applications.

    Where they pull depends on your state, but I'm guessing you already did that research. I think you have a good shot with Amex. Just be ready to describe your business, if needed. I would also wait until a bit closer to the 9/4 cut-off to give some more space between apps. Good luck!

    Only $3k CL, the lowest I have ever received. I was hoping to use my AMEX to pay for Property tax but the tax is $3500, just above the CL.
