Re: Highest Credit Line

Today, I got bored, so I decided to call AmEx customer support and ask random questions. After I was greeted, I asked "Can I purchase a car with my American Express Card? The lady said, "I don't see why not! Tell me how much it is and I'll check if we can approve that amount." I told her I would like to get a 92k BMW, and to my surprise, she said that amount was approved. She also sounded quite surprised too. This really made me quite happy, since all my other credit card limits added together are not 92k.

I believe the ccc stay at 20% anual income.



I received 2 cards with 7k limits and put my income at 30k

 

So that can't be the case.

Re: Highest Credit Line

Wow, some great limits. I dont come anywhere close but i will soon I hope Smiley Happy

 

I was talking to Card services for BOA and the account spacialist said that limits are dictated moslty at 35% of income max. Not sure how accurate that is. Maybe others could confirm/refute this statement.

Actually the 20% makes sense to me. Chase gave me 20,500 when my income is 100k. Of coruse, if your income is lower, that % could be higher. I would be surprise if you had a card with 25k when your income is 30k.

AmEx Blue Cash Everyday - $1,100 - need CLI or will close
BankAmerica Cash Rewards - $10,000
Chase Freedom - $10,000
Chase Sapphire Preferred - $5,000
Chase Ink Bold - $5,000
Citi Platinum Select - $2,600
Discover More - $4,000

I'm surprised to see your Discover More at $1000 when your chase is $20k. What did they tell you?

Re: Highest Credit Line

Highest is a Citi 25k card. No frills or rewards - it was secured until they unsecured it earlier this year. They just waived the AF.


I have reestablished credit over the last couple years
so my moniker is, well, rather out of date.

WM Discover $1800, WF Plat 12k, Chase Freedom Siggy18k, Amex Plat (60k H/B), Citi AA EWMC 25k
