I just got approved for the card, so I'll see what happens. I like the 2pts bonus on phone lines etc that the personal doesn't have.
If I were to cancel my personal and keep the business, I wonder how badly that would effect my personal credit score, since I would be loosing that credit limit which is pretty high. I could transfer the limit to the business card before canceling the personal but I also read that the business card doesn't effect personal credit scores.
I hope I am effective at getting across this point lol. Basically, should I NOT favor the business over the personal? I ultimately want to have one marriott card and I only applied for the business to get the 50k bonus but I also like the extra spend categories that it offers.
