Cap 1 secure Platinum auto CL increase! what!!???? confused

Cap 1 Secure card was the first card i opened 2 years ago with 200 Credit LImit. I know for a fact i have tried just incase i would ask for credit limit increases all the time they never gave me any, because secure cards dont auto increase. This morning i signed on to pay my bill. I had a limit increase to 750!! what?? could it be a mistake? should i call and ask? afraid its a mistake and have it taken away.... anyone else have this happen to them? with Cap 1 secure card

I literally just registered to reply to this. I lurk all the time Smiley Happy I've had my secured card since Dec. 2012. Originally made a $99 deposit for a $200 cl. Got one increase to $300 after 6 months, and I've never even tried to get another one because everything ive read said they didn't do that. just this month, I apped, and was approved for the Quicksilver with a $500 limit, which I've used a ton since I opened. Logged into my account today, and my limit on my secured card has been raised to $750!!! I thought it was a mistake too, so I came here to see if anybody else had posted Smiley Happy

Add me to the list! I put a total of $49 for the inital $200 Limit last year.. 6 months went by and they upped it to $300, log in today to pay the stupid AF and it's sitting at $750! Ill take it!

 

Edit: Just checked my Wife's Secured balance and it was also auto CLI'd to $750 as of today! Smiley Very Happy
