I currently have: BCE PRG HHonors Surpass I was wanting to upgrade my BCE to BCP. You can upgrade from the BCE to the BCP (per an Amex rep I spoke to after opening the BCE) after having the BCE for a year with no pull. I was thinking to max the situation I would transfer as much of the CL as I can to my Hilton card, instead of just transferring the CL directly to the BCP, and then call back and then close the BCE. Then go online and apply for the BCP and get a new CL and do a 2-for-1 and get the no fee Everyday card. Anyone see any flaws in this or see a better way to max the benefits?

The Everyday and Everyday Preferred cards are now up on the AMEX site and accepting applications. It looks like these will be a pretty good cards since Membership Rewards Points is one of the better deals out there when it comes to rewards, especially with the bonus points and extra supermarket points. This is their first revolver(s) that use Membership Reward Points. I have not applied for it as I'm good on cards right now.
