Generous increase from GE Bank Walmart Card

3rd statement I log on to pay the $25 balance from a recent purchase and my limit shows $800 not bad considering I didn't ask for it and my previous limit was $150.

Congrats! This GE card will grow even further with you and help you get higher limits from other creditors!! Also, you have the ability to upgrade to the Wmt Discover within a year or two assuming a clean report when GE does their periodic soft pull of your report! Good luck and hang in there :-)

I've had the GE Walmart Store card since 8/10 and after about a year or so they started giving me CLI's every 4-5 months like clockwork. Paying the bill on time and carrying a balance. Right before my two year anniversay with that card they upgraded me to the Walmart Discover and uped the CL by$1500 automatically. Treat this card wll and it'll do you and your credit score some real good things!! Also the free TU FICO is great in and of itself!
