Re: Barclays Just Made Me Do The Snoopy Dance!!!

How often does Barclay auto-increase? I've had two, 5 months after approval then 5 months after that. Is there a point when they stop and have to be initiated with a HP?

Re: Barclays Just Made Me Do The Snoopy Dance!!!

I applied for another Barclay card in July 2013 and was denied due to too many recent account openings.  I called Barclays in September and told them that I was considering closing my account because of the low credit line.  The rep said that I could request a CLI (month 5 of account).  I asked would it be a hardpull and she said no.  I didn't want to ask for too much so I asked to go from $950 to $1,500.  Approved.  The interesting thing is there was no hard pull on any of my reports.  I can't check soft pulls on TU, but I can see them on Experian and Equifax.  There was no soft pull on EQ or EX, so maybe it was a soft pull on TU or they used that hard pull from July.

Congrats on the auto-LUV!  Those balance transfer checks will keep coming.  I think they sent me some 2x/month, but what the heck would I transfer with a $750 limit haha.

Re: Barclays Just Made Me Do The Snoopy Dance!!!

I've read a few posts that said a requested CLI is a HP. Maybe that has changed?

I was getting balance transfer checks every month but only used them once the beginning of the Summer. Received them for months, then they stopped. And then I wanted to use one but I was a few days to late.  The last time I received an increase I also received a letter letting me know what my new CL was and that envelope included checks. 

 

Wondering if I'll see another increase 5 months from now (March).
