Barclay Arrival CLI/Experience

[MrChairman]

I got my barclaycard about 11 days ago. with a 2.5k limit. I had to run out of town due to a family emergency and maxed out the card very quickly. Made a few payments while I was out of town to keep using the card for the reward points. Does anyone think since that I used the card so much in such a short period of time they would be willing to give me a CLI?

you can call backdoor number and see if they will do manual review for bit higher.

+1  I called the back door number about a week after receiving my Arrival and they bumped me from $1000 to $2500. It will however be a HP even though the timing is close.  Good luck

Update: Limit increased to 5k from 2.5k. I asked for 8k but they were unwilling to go that high since the account is still "pretty new". They used the old report from when I applied since it was less than 30 days old.

See, everyone ALWAYS says you will get another HP and you had the same experience that I have always known for Barclay backdoor is they do not pull again if a report is on file!

Congrats

If you have a legit reason for the credit limit increase I am sure they will give it to you. When I first got my reward card in jan with a cl of 1300, I called them about a month later - Backdoor number and got it increased to 3k (hard pull) because account is over 30 days old. Good luck to you, never hurt to try and call them!
