I have been opening Amex cards for over 10 years. General kept for 1-2 years in a sock drawer, although a couple held onto for several years due to upgrades & no fees.
September - popup ineligibility for Hilton Aspire & Hilton Business card although never having opened those cards before.
I began to put spend on personal & business cards I hold in mid-Sept. Anywhere from 1 small transaction around $20 to almost $2,000 in multiple transactions (all legit, no MS). 1 week later - still getting pop up.
5-6 weeks after spend - auto-approved for Hilton Business card.
Does that last part mean that 5-6 weeks later you applied for the Hilton Business card and the pop-up did not come up so you technically qualify for the SUB?

The pop-up does not mean that you can't get approved for the card, but that if you are approved you will not receive the SUB.

Thanks
