Walmart Discover CL ceiling?

With the exception of my Corporate Amex, my Walmart Discover is my smallest CL @ $5800.

 

It brings down my average credit limit per account.  I'd like to get it up around 10k if I can.

 

Are there some of you out there that have gotten the Walmart Discover up that high?

 

how long did it take, and how much of a pain in the arse was it to accomplish?

 

I started out around $1200, and got to the $5800 with 2 CLI's I asked for.  No auto CLI's.

 

wondering if its worth the effort.

Call underwriting and tell then it's your lowest card and ask them to match it.

Re: Walmart Discover CL ceiling?

Not sure if the underwriting is the same, but I just got an increase on my Sam's Discover from $6,019 to $10,000. The new Luv button makes it easy. I opened my account in November 2011 with a starting CL of $1,100. I have received nice increases every requested CLI. I did just run $1k thru the card under a special promotion, but other than that the card gets very little use.

Re: Walmart Discover CL ceiling?

I'm personally at 10k on my Walmart Discover, but I've read that there are people on credit forums with 20k limits.

 

I recon'd my initial credit limit...went from 1,300 to 10,000.

Re: Walmart Discover CL ceiling?

I think I'll try talking to the UW directly.  I think last time I just spoke with a first line associate.

 

I will however wait until my refinance closes.  Just in case they get froggy with a HP.  No need to complicate the refi.

Good idea.  Any CLI that takes you above 10k requires UW  approval.  I just went from  4900 to 7500 via LUV button.

Yeah, call their backdoor # which is listed in the backdoor #'s thread.

 

No need to wait until after your refi to request a CLI, it's a soft pull. Here's a tip: with GECRB backed cards, it's actually better to recon after normal business hours like late nights and the weekends.
