Hi all,
Quick update....
Tonight my 6th statement cut for my Capital One QS and I received my Credit Steps increase. Originally I had a $500 credit line and was supposed to have a $250 Credit Steps increase after 5 on-time payments.
Well, thanks to the advice here as noted in my previous post, I received the $1,000 CLI after 60 or so days and then tonight, another $500 so my credit line is now $2,000!
I know others have done better but I'm very happy considering originally it was only going to be a $750 card. I'm pretty bad about keeping a high balance but they still like me.
Total CL: $321.7k | UTL: 2% | AAoA: 7.0yrs | Baddies: 0 | Other: Lease, Loan, *No Mortgage, All Inq's from Jun '20 Car Shopping |
Way to go! I love the info and story updates you guys and gals give.

Note account was activated 1/22/16 and CLI was granted 3/22/16 - 60 days old is the magic number. Don't bother trying prior to 60 days after opening the account.
Yes, you would have had the same results online.
Thanks so much for the replies you guys! I really appreciate the encouragement!
Now I just need to get rid of my Cap One Secured and go for the QS1 since I was denied for already having the 2 cards! With the new 6mo rule I'll have to wait since I haven't had the QS quite 6 months yet.
woohoo!!
