Barclay rewards MC approval

Well I got a scary 7-10 day email yesterday and this morning I got an email saying I was approved so I called the automated account number and was granted a $1300 limit. Is this what they ususally start you off with? I thought it would be more considering my other cards.

Congrats on the approval!  Don't know your credit profile or other cards but starting limits are usually based on profile with Barclays.

Re: Barclay rewards MC approval

On monday call the backdoor number and recon your starting limit with a credit analyst.. Ask them to match your highest limit on another card, they usually will.

Re: Barclay rewards MC approval

i think there are 2 versions of BRM (average credit and excellent credit)

 

average credit

APR for Purchases24.99% variable APR

 

 

excellent credit

 

18 Months purchases18 months BT

0%

 

14.99% or 19.99%*

Variable

0%

 

14.99% or 19.99%*

Variable

 

i'm sure the starting limits vary between them.

 

congrats.... i started with the "average credit" card at $500
