Amazon Store Card

My scores are not the best but I am rebuilding. I recently made a $150 payment to lower my util on this card. My prev CL was $800 and now they dropped it to $660! This sucks! I have never had a late payment with them or anything! I did recently req a CLI and was denied. I wonder if I caused it by req the CLI???? Anyone have any experience w/ this??

Re: Amazon Store Card

From my understanding banks do this to adjust their risk portfolio. Basically they give your 150 dollar decrease to someone else as an increase or as a part of new credit. Has the account been dormant for awhile?

Re: Amazon Store Card

Not dormant at all. I had used it fairly frequently. Is it possible that they will continue to lower my CL? I really hate to see what it's going to my score

Re: Amazon Store Card

It's possible, they can adjust limits any time they want basically. what did they state as the reason for denial of your CLI request?

Re: Amazon Store Card

It said my balances were too high to my CL. Its why I req the CLI! I thought it was a SP. They only reason I risked it. I think it may have been a HP though.
