GE CLI request - zero balance

For GE backed cards, should I have a zero balance when I request a CLI? Right now I have 800/1800 on card. I've paid off the 800 but it hasn't been fully processed yet.

Re: GE CLI request - zero balance

I find it is easier to figure out your cli with ge cards if you have 0 balance. They dont ask what you want your new limit to be. It is always "how much more do you need for your next purchase..." then I have to do math. XD

Good luck
