What's your total utilization?  Anything negative pop up on your CR?  More than likely your history of making the minimum payment, then all of a sudden a $7000 payment spooked them.  BoA is big on that stuff - my Cashrewards card that hadn't been used in quite some time all of a sudden sends off fraud alerts when I try to pump gas with it.  Call the number for Credit analyst existing accounts and ask them what's going on.  866-811-4108

How long have you been carrying the balance?

Seems their balance chasing now

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

That was my impression of the situation. Call an analyst ASAP to see if you can reinstate your limit.

No its not illegal. Thou whom giveth may taketh.

I would call the number and ask whats going on and if they would consider restoring your limit before you jump to any conclusions.

Wow, sorry to hear, when you are in this kind of financial trouble you do not use funds that you need to fix your car to temporarily pay off a CC just to save a few bucks in interest. If you cant get them to reinstate the line you are again in trouble if you cant come up with the funds somewhere else to pay off the shop that is fixing your car.... I hope you can get this resolved.

Sorry to hear this. I believe, that 90% Util trigerred this.

 

They are completely allowed to reduce your limit, close your account at their wish without any reasons. But, usually, these happens when your Util Max out. 

 

My suggestions would be call them, and explain that, you got these expenses and will pay all of the amount soon. They may give your CL Back.

Makes no sense. So one lump sum to give them their money back will scare them?
