is that on one card or both? 

they probably saw all the other 5k cards and thought they were behind! 

congrats on the cli.

It was just on my $1300 one... The $1700 cl is an Orchard Acct... Kinda sad my Orchard was higher than my C1 lmao! The good thing now is that if I ever need to, I can get a blank check from C1 and have access to my new large credit line :-) I asked for $7500! But $5000 is a milestone for C1!

Congrats! That is HUGE! What type of Cap One card did they do the increase on?

Well it was a Visa Platinum account I got in April 2006- first card ever. And yes, I was under 18, but still approved me for $300.

In Nov 2011, they offered to upgrade me to a 1.25% cash or miles No Hassle card... So it's a No Hassle Cash card... To me, the 1.25% wild beat the most recent offer of 1% plus the 50% bonus, since I just get my cash every month! Has a 13.9% apr. i ONLY use it for itunes ($30 a month in music-bad habit, I know)! Def'ly my best APR!! Besides promo offers!

Keep in mind, my payment history is STELLAR!!! I've always known the importance of, not just paying..but paying on time and in full if possible! Even when I had no job, I still used my savings to pay above the min! I haven't missed a payment since like 07 and have only exceeded my credit line ONCE, EVER!

By missing a pmt... I mean late by a few days... No recorded lates on my reports at all!!!!

Impressive, Congrats on the nice increase!

Thanks!! I sort of feel like if I'd have asked for $10,000, id get $7500 lol reminds me of GECRB where they like to counter, so aim for the stars! Haha although GE usually doesn't argue or hassle me about a cli! Grrr

it seems like emailing the Exec Office is the way to go!!! It's crazy how protocol works at the corporate level... Oh no... A call won't suffice.. We need to send an email! Hahha ehh

good luck everyone!
