Congrats! I can't even fathom a CL that large.

 

I've always wondered with CLs this high -- if you try to swipe your card, say, at a dealership for a new car that costs $35k, would it just approve, no questions asked? Ignoring that this is probably a ludicrious idea unless you're gonna PIF, but assuming you wanna just charge a car to your card, then pay it in full the next cycle..can one do that?


Yes it would approve.  Althoug might want to give Barclay's or any other lender a heads up a large charge is about to come their way.  Most likely they will approve it although might have some questions prior to doing so..Such as repayment plans, etc.

I'm My Barclay Arrival+ increased from $28.5k to $40k. I asked for $50k and have made more than $70k in transfers with them over the past several years so I'm surprised it wasn't approved.


You need to figure out a way to get $500 more dollars Smiley Happy
