question regarding credit line increase

How come everytime I try to do a credit line increase for my walmart, Jcpenney, and Gap card, it comes up "can not do a credit line increase online for this account."

 

I know the 3 credit cards are owned by the same company and i get the same response.

 

Does anyone know why?

 

Thanks

From what I have seen and read on this site, GE will give CLI's every four statements and will then stubbornly refuse more increases until the next four pass.

Re: question regarding credit line increase

They will give when ready (4th statement), until that moment you'll get the same response.  Be sure to use the cards, they like use.  Penneys was super stubborn with me until finally I started using it about 5 mos in, then it seemed like the clock started ticking because I went from an opening line of 150 --> 650 (luv button) --> 1200 (auto cli before 4 mos - weird) just the other day.  So to me they seem very generous but it's a waiting game.

How long have you had your card. It could be because it is less than 4 months old.
