Re: So GE doesn't like me?

I have a question...I recently(like a month ago) asked for a CLI and was approved but  I was thinking to ask for a higher increase..do you think it's way to soon? I had a balance of $25 but PIF yesterday. Should I just wait till that payment processed or should I go ahead and ask?

If you're referring to GE I believe you can only request every 3 or 4 months. I know personally I tried right after a month that i rquested a credit increase that the reason they didnt approve a additional one was that I had recently gotten one so id wait or call

Re: So GE doesn't like me?

I have had my Walmart store card since July.  Started at $400.00 CL.  I hit the "Request CL increase" button online, and they instantly gave me $150.00 CLI to $550.00

 

I charged a total of 213.00 on the card since I got it.

You can ask for a credit increase just call the backdoor number. Many members here including myself have asked within a months time and recieved a really high limit. The difference is that you will actually talk to a live person not a automated system best of luck.
