Ok so I blasted the "system" alittle while ago in my dyatribe. So I'm just looking around on the net and I think to check my balance on my CapOne account which reports in a few days so I wanted to make sure I left a small balance as I playfully try to "tickle" my score by dropping my remaining amount from $20 last month to $10 this month.
Well, I've been trying to GW CapOne with 3 emails to the CEO's fake email acct resulting in a "no". Then I sent a letter resulting in a "no." Then someone said they had good results on the CapOne chat so I try that. The guy says "sure I can do that." Two weeks later I get a letter saying no so I call the CS and the guy says "sorry, but no." I printed the transcript of the chat conversation. So I email that the the fake CEO email. Last 3 emails I got a call 4 or 5 days later....this time I get one the very next morning at 9:30 am. I get the same well mannered young lady who I've spoke to now for the fourth time. She says she can't see me losing the late but she'll "research" it again and get back with me. As we're closing the conversation she says "is there anything else I can help you with today?" I thought what the heck..."I'd like to double mu CL from $500 to $1000 she asked a couple questions and says she'll see what she can do.
Well....I haven't heard about my late getting goodwilled away but I just noticed my NEW CL OF $1000.00!!! I just got a CLI from $300 to $500 only 3 months ago.
So on the same day I get a 7 point loss for creating a new TL for our new car and I get a CLI increase of 50%. (which by the way SW hasn't alerted me to yet...but I'm not sure if that fits in the criteria).
crazy day FO SHO!!
Crazy day Guiness!! CapOne is due on the 8th (already paid) and reports on the 11th. I wonder if the new CLI will gimme a little bounce back???
If your utilization is high it will.
my new CL is $1500 between CapOne and my CU CC. My CU card blance is $0.00 and my CapOne bal is $10.00. I use the cards for gas during the month and pay them off the week before the due date and just "leave a little" so they don't make anything off of me. (I'm tight that way!) So I guess my util is .05%?
Your utilization is nowhere near high lol. The CLI will look good to lenders seeing that you can use credit with higher limits.
Congrats on the CLI, hope you get that late taken care of too!
