No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
So I've had my Cap1 card with a $500 limit since June 2007. I called once for an increase and was denied (over a year ago) so I decided to check out the website and maybe try again but the site said they gave increases with periodic reviews so I decided not to bother.
Fast forward to a few days later and I'm checking my account to see my balance and how much my minimum amount owed was and I literally gasped out loud! My credit line had jumped from $500 to $5500!!! OMG, are you kidding me!! lol.
It's now been over a week and it doesn't look like a fluke so I am just over the moon. I'm still in college so this is HUGE for me (this is my only card) but since I had credit problems in the past this time around is going to be a different story!
I just had to share with all my fellow MYFICO friends
Happy Holidays

WOOOWWW. MERY X-MAS
That's absolutely outstanding, blondie_keen!
Congratulations!
I'll just bet you'll be getting offers in the mail for other cards in the very near future, too. Choose wisely when those offers arrive. You'll only want to app for the best of them!
And a very Merry Christmas to you, too! Enjoy your break.
Congrats.
I think they are being generous all of a sudden, my Fiance's card was just increased from $1500 to $4500.
