I was instantly approved with CL of $1800 back in early January 2010 (a few days more than 10 months ago), with my average FICO scores in the mid-500's. Now, I have my FICO scores at the 700 mark and I asked for a CLI online. I was instantly declined. Then I applied for a normal credit card at a bank elsewhere about two days later. I was instantly approved with a credit limit of $7000. Anyone care to give me some insight?

Welcome to the forums!

A store card (like the Amazon) card does not equal "normal credit card from a bank."

Store cards as a rule have lower CL's than do general credit cards (MC, Visa, AmEx, Discover.) Some exceptions include cards for stores with shiny expensive toys like Best Buy and Home Depot, where they really, really want you to charge that home theater system or stainless steel armoire-style refrigerator. * drools *

Throw in differences between lenders in general (GEMB vs HSBC vs BofA vs WFNNB vs Citi and on and on), and your experience isn't that surprising.

Congrats on the great improvement in your scores!
