3. Cancelled AA Aviator (in #2 ) on 11/09/17.
4. Applied 2nd AA Aviator on 12/15/17, app went pending.
5. Checked Barclays online account this morning, 12/17/17, and it now lists a new card account.
So, looks like it may have worked. My question is...if the card is approved does that mean I definitely got the bonus? It's not in the wiki (and it should be if true), but I thought I read that Barclays won't approve you if you are nor eligible for the bonus.
You will get the bonus. No data points at all for getting approved but no bonus on the card.
