All someone would have to do is get your SSN and MyFICO posts & signatures reveal the rest. Good ole social engineering at its finest and most users here volunteer the informaiton!
No way you'd get answers to the questions Barclay asked me from here. And my income is not publically available info, so no lender would be able to confirm or deny anything by asking for it. As such, I have no problems sharing it. I make in the neighborhood of 30k a year and have just over 13k in total credit, so that puts me just below 50% credit to income ratio.

Percentage. Credit is 300% of my income. Actually more. 
income 62k
credit 190k

I'm worried a good card will be introduced but I won't be able to get it because of having too much available credit. I'm waiting to get the sapphire preferred (5/24 rule) and hoping i can stlll get it since I already have 5 cards with chase, which i need for hotels and airlines travel, but i realize my credit limits are too high for my income. Has anyone gotten turned down by Chase for this reason?
No.
My income is $61K, total limits $324,000 plus an Amex charge card.
My last Chase application was 1.5 months ago. Way back then, my credit limit total was only $287,000 and they gave me the Chase United Explorer card.
This after obtaining the Chase Disney and Chase AARP cards in early December.
