By my math your total available credit is around $350k. With an understated income of $100k? Very nice. Have you ever been declined or had to call recon because of too much available credit for your stated income?


I think OP just added the cards a few months ago on a spree, so I guess no declines for that reason yet. That will change and may ocur from now on. It helps to garden, a lot.

 

Congrats OP, that spree is epic.

I didn't want to make the initial post too long with specifics for each account, but yes I did use what I learned here to call analysts and EOs.  There were no denials, but I did recon the lower limits given by certain banks' computer software.  I was told specifically by the Citi analyst that their online applications always provide lower limits than if you complete an application over the phone, yet so few people call in to ask for higher limits after online instant approval.

 

I haven't had any issues with too much credit available, likely because the amount I run through credit cards each month for personal and business expenses is so high.

Epic! Congrats! I don't think I've ever seen so many 20k+ approvals in an app spree before on this board. Wow!

My scores took a hit for sure - between 30-40 points initally.  They have recovered and are almost to the same levels pre-spree and should be once the INQs hit 6 months and my mortgage ages (it finally posted to my reports a couple weeks ago so there isn't a history yet.)
