1. card name/lender
2. year opened
3. initial APR
4. initial CL
Then, state where that same credit card is today (please be honest)
So i'll start;
1. Citi dividend card
2. opened 2008
3. APR 14.24%
4. CL= $3,600
Now, that same account has changed to a Citi double cash with an APR 10.74% and CL=$35,000
1. Capital One Platinum Mastercard
2. opened 2013
3. APR 22.9%
4. CL= $500
Same card has the same APR but the CL is now 2500.

I've never increased the limit and no auto increases. I tried once and found out my ex wife had made a charge on a Sears card she was AU on and was 30 days late effectively ruining my CLI request. I would have never known since I never used the card and the bill was going to her address. I've been such a conservative credit user my whole life so this forum and some of the credit files are mindblowing to me.
1. Amex Blue Sky
2. opened 12/2013

I'm still on Intro 0% APR, so I haven't had a chance for an APR reduction. I PC'd to Blue Cash and the The credit line is currently $6,000.
