Lol oknhere it goes; I have gotten 3, Opened it October2010 via the wonderful backdoor # w/ $1k cl. I then received a auto cli $2k in April 2011 then another auto cli $4k in Oct 2011 a year after opening it. I have used the card and done my best to PIF every month. Right now I am carrying high balance so we will see next month after the statement closes.

Soooo......I got denied when applying for the Itunes Barclay card. I called the back door and got aprooved for a $1500 dollar limit. Bittersweet. I curently have a card with my credit union..4k limit..HSBC-1100, Cap 1--750, Cap 1 500, and Target-200. I wanted to get a card that would give me a great limit so I can close the other ones. What gives? Is this card really worth it with only a $1500 limit?
Thanks

I've basically just transferred a balance from Cap 1 to this card and then used this card sparingly and made regular payments. Some good news for people that have just signed up for this card and are hoping for a CLI in six months. This company rocks!! FYI, I also had like 4 other hard inquiries around March and this didn't seem to matter!
Congrats OP!!!

It will depend your needs, but I can tell you that my CL has tripled since opening it. Not only that but if you have an Itunes account you get the rewards, oh yea and I have received several offers for 0% or as low as 3.9% APR on balance transfer which has helped.
