BMO World Elite with 2% travel credit

Arguably though, one could expect for both cards to have the same requirements.

Were you a current BMO or recent (<3months) BMO customer when you applied?

EDIT: Welcome to the forum huebyt. Seems you've been lurking for a while and have finally chosen 2 of my topics to start contributing :-)
I actually have had the BMO World Elite twice now, the first time was back in 12/2013, used the 30000 bmo rewards ($300.00) to book hotels in Italy. I had already had a bmo mastercard and switched to world elite for the bonus and fyf. I just got it again a couple of months ago and am waiting for my bonus points still, but received my priority pass kit.
