    Has anyone here cancelled any Amex card and then *successfully* re-applied for that same type of card within 90 days and received & used it all OK?

    Nope.

    Who knows, maybe they really fixed the problem?!?

    Thanks I missed that thread.
    Seems odd that I’ve heard reports of people cancelling PRG cards and re-opening again a short while later (under 90 days).
