Any insights would be much appreciated!
I have done global transfer almost 2 years ago. US->Canada.
PM with questions.
This is what I did - applied for Amex platinum Canada and used a 60k MR link (put my amex plat US number in the previous card information). Called Amex US and Amex Canada both and told them I was doing a global transfer and gave them application number. Was able to get it processed in a week or two without much being done. Got 60k MR without issued. Waited 6 months and got a few other cards without issues. Never closed the US card.
For some reason, chase didn't approve my Marriott card app last year. No way I could figure out to call reconsiderations.
