Has anyone run into issues with being approved for yet another of these credit cards after having already obtained several of them? Is there a risk that applying for yet another one would backfire, with the bank canceling an existing one instead?

I've just had so many negative experiences with AmEx that I'm wary of credit card companies in general.

Thanks.
It's always possible a bank will take adverse action, is it likely? Probably not. If it is not instantly approved, I think you're going to need a good reason to have 3 of the same cards with one bank. There are some stories about this in the credit card programs - us airways card thread.

I would think a financial review has something to do with it, or a massive credit line decrease (2008-09).
