It helps to have at least one existing card at that level with another bank, but some lender has to be the first, so it may as well be Amex.

Then it's on to a $200k+ limit on one card, which at least one member on here and/or FW has, as of a few years ago.

Last year I called and asked if I could submit tax returns and the CSR said there was not a process for consumers to initiate the request. I suppose I should try again.
