Macy's and Bloomingdales cli question

[Anonymous]

I have a Macy's and Bloomingdales account that I want to do cli. My question is how should go about the special events account. I was reading somewhere that there were only combining the balances not the limit and you need to have used the new account in 24 months.

Call and ask for a cli on both then ask for a special events account. Tell them you want to buy a mattress or furniture.

If you haven't used the special events account with a minimum $500 purchase the limit will not merge.

My Bloomindales card had a credit line of $1,000 opened May 2015.

Last Night I called for a CLI. Nice lady asked me to verify income and rent/own, then very quickly came back with an APPROVAL for 3k.

This morning my CR monitoring service reported the HP instead of a SP.

I spent 5-10 minutes on the phone, trying to get to a human. Just googled for the CEO's name, Tony Spring, and sent him an email asking for the HP to be removed or 'masked'. Fingers crossed.
