PleioneG, mine is two months old and I just paid my first bill (PIF). Worth a try...they can only say no. Look at all the increases here...not like a new app, just an increase. Good luck!![]()

Others with similar scenarios were successful. It's worth a try![]()

Thought I would join the party. Called the back door number and requested a CLI from 1800 to 5000. Asnwered questions about my income and a few minutes later it was approved.
Thanks GE!

i think people should also post other limits and income.
obviously walmart wouldnt give someone a 10k limit with 15k reported income.
for me it was
last highest limit 3.5k
income is 32k a year sole (family but wasnt asked is about 110k)

No increase for me. Maybe I asked for too much. Said 2,000. I wonder if I should call back and ask for only 1,200. Guess I'll have to wait until the account is at least three months old. Grats to everyone else!

call back in a few weeks or a month... if you call back too soon, they'd know that you just asked for an increase ... that's what happened to me.... i guess they can see CLI requests... try again before christmas, they might approve it... ![]()
