Has anybody ever had, or heard of someone else having, their account flagged with something like that? Some kind of flag to require manual review before any new accounts are approved, or anything like that? I know it may seem a little far-fetched to some of you, but I'm all about playing it safe. I'm definitely waiting 6+ months from that date before applying for another AA card (business this time). I'm just trying to figure out if I should have any concerns, if I should wait longer, or anything like that.
