So I couldn't resist... I called GECRB for my Amazon Store Card , and got approved for an increase from $1,900 to $3,000! Yay! This will help my utilization... I just charged a school book for a big $91 hahah. I keep Amazon at $0 balance or do their 0% offers. :-) I love GECRB!

Yay!!! For beinf young, smart, and credit savvy!! I love that $150 is the min purchase to get 0% for six months!!
Roxy- what I did last semester was take advantage of the 0%, paid the min pmt til I sold my books, then pif what was left... What a no brainer!! :-) I'm always tempted to app for the Amazon Visa at checkout haha, but I'm more than happy with the Amazon Store Card.

Does anyone on the forum have both that you've seen?!?

That is a really good idea. I will have to try that next semester! I don't think I've seen anyone on here with both but I think I like more store card more than I would the chase visa. From what I hear chase is always a HP for CLIs. (I may be wrong!) But I know my dad has had the amazon visa for a few years and his CL is 5100 (he has very good credit and income) but I don't know if he's ever asked for a CLI but GE has been good to me with auto CLIs.
