But even if there is, it might be worth it only because the $100 CL was driving me crazy. They increased it up to $500, which is plenty.
Wow... Yes.. that is nice... And the next wone will hopefully be 1 or 2K. Congrats!!!

They started me out at $100 and yes, it was really really frustrating. Especially considering within a few months after getting the LB card I had major bank cards with $5000+ CLs. Once you have 5 statements, I would click the "request increase" button on your online account.
I also have a WFNNB card from Avenue and they auto CLI'd me within 4 statements. Really frustrating that each card seems to have its own rules!
