Crown Jewelers- did they really lower your CL at 6mo?

I know this has been discussed before, but I would like to hear from people who have hit their 6 month mark with CJ-- did they really decrease your limit and to what amount? What impact did this have on your score?
 
Thanks!

I have wanted to know that as well, but have yet to see the answer to that.  They base it on your purchases as to what they will set the CL once they take away the down payment, but would love there to be a way to keep that CL.

I got my CJ account on March 15th of this year, so I'm coming up on 6 months in September.  I've only made one purchase in that time frame (a charm bracelet for like 60 bucks) but I'm figuring I'll make another one soon just to keep them from marking it inactive. 
 
I'll bookmark this thread and post on my 6 month anniversary if no one else posts a for sure answer before then.
