What's your goal cc limits?

snowkitty · ‎09-10-2012

I'm curious....what is your goal credit card limit all together? All you can get, to match your salary or what?

When I started building my credit last year, my first goal was to just get approved (lol), then once I started getting cards I wanted to break the 5,000.00 credit limit on a card. I did that today with a new Amex BCE approval. I don't see really needing much more than 5k on any of my cards. So I'm curious what goals y'all set. Do you jusy always want more as you get more/better cards??

Went over $100K this month, so I'm very satisfied with where I am. I have the cards that I wanted and the limits are fine where they are. If I get auto-CLI, cool...if not, I'm just fine with staying where I am! Time to GARDEN big time ! ! ! !

In The Garden 02/01/13
TU(TU04)=813 EQ(BEACON 9.0)=803 EX=756(4/2013) CL=$123,650 TOTAL/UTIL= ~5%

$10,000 per card, $50,000 total CL. I was hoping to get over the $10k hump on my 61 day 3x CLI from $5400 starting CL to $15k. But they only gave me $8500. Disapointed to say the least but I only put about $700 through the card in 3 months so its expected.

BCE: $0/$8500, CSP: $15/$5000, Chase Priority Club: $0/$3500, Freedom: $0/$5000, Barclays NFL: $0/$7000 Discover: $0/$4750, Citi Dividend: $0/$2000 Cap1 x2 $0/$2250

EQ FICO - 07/2012: 699, 08/2012: 714, 10/2012: 729, 11/2012: 686, 12/2012: 723, 01/2013: 737, 03/2013: 725, 04/2013: 734, 05/2013: 736
EX FICO(AMEX) - 10/2012: 712

I just want to get my first 5 digit limt...without a hard pull and recover from all my new accounts and inquiries over the last year. I am hoping in six months I will have all my scores at 760+ if I don't app.

My goal later this year is to obtain Discover with a high starting limit and low APR and maybe CSP. Perhaps a Citi card...but only because they have denied me twice and I think I just want the satisfaction of getting them to say yes..lol

Eh, I would love at least one card with at least $5K at this point...something I can travel with without issues. For daily use, though, cards in the $1K - $2K range would be perfect.

Of course, the more the better. I'd just lock up most of them.

10k per card is what I am aiming for non Amex.

25k is Amex!

That´s a good one.

In additon: Enough to not worry about UTIL if a balance reports. Still PIF of course, but not before statement cuts. Aiming to pay on due date.
