And that is exactly why I won't app Sam's MC. I hate that whole switcheroo they do with that card and store version. Congrats on Ebates!

Sams Club MC and other sync bank MCs tend to favor longer overall history. I'd say over a year and a half is good enough to qualify I had a bunch of TU inquiries and got mine so that's not an issue with them in the slightest. If you got a score in the 700s, even better. Also, I had the regular Sams Club and still do and had that for about 5 months before getting the MC. It's useful as a utilization buffer because you can get it up to $8k after one statement.

 

Congrats to the OP even though Ebates for me has been a PITA to try to get a higher limit on.

Try the chat feature. I did it last week on my Chevron card that was 1 week old. I just asked for increase from $650 to $3000 and it was approved.

just wait for the card to come in mail and you can set up online account access for the sams club and do chat feature and ask for CLI to $10k... I received counter for $8k.

My ebates was approved same as yours and have not been able to get it increased yet but coming up on 4 months I think next week!
