Re: Do all GE cards have the same criteria?

Me too. Both Victoria Secret and Brylane told me 9 months and I'm going to try again on ON in a month. After that it will be up to Chase & Citi. I have no doubt my boa will hit 1k when it unsecures this summer. I'm hoping once my two new Amex cards cards show up on reports that other places will losen the reigns on my limits a bit.

I'm curious....have you had all your cards for a while or have you gotten them all in the past year like me?

@daybreak   Did you ask for the cli right at a year or before that? Did it go pretty smooth?

Right at a year! Went relatively smoothly. Not sure if they actually give instant CLIs, but I put in what I wanted, income, and rent payments. Said they would notify me in 7-10 days of decision. Received a hard pull on Experian. Think I did this during the evening. By the next morning, the $800 was approved and reflecting on my page!

Re: Do all GE cards have the same criteria?

@daybreak Thanks! I guess I need to wait for a year to hit before I ask. It's only been opened since Sept. Which if it's going to be a hp anyways, I may just app for the shell mc then.
