Mine was US Bank Platinum Visa as well (current credit limit $1000). I never asked for a credit limit increase before. How much CLI did you get if I may ask.
And thanks for the tip, I also do bank with them, so that definitely helps.
I recently was raised from $300 to $1,000 and even though I reconned I am regretting not sticking to my guns and asking for my original amount of $1500. Depends on income and living expenses etc. However, I had 2+years with their card and as with all things on YMMV.
I hate to give you a number and you not get it. What I can do is tell you what I intend to ask for in 6 months. In 6 months I am first requesting a CLI of $2500 and then asking if I qualify for an upgrade to one of their Flex Perks Card,
Just remember, if you do get declined for your CLI, as I was, recon it! Call the number listed on the letter and ask for a "manual review". They will ask you gross income, monthly housing expense, rent or own. Good luck buddy and let me know how it goes! I am pulling for ya!
Thanks buddy. I will let you know how it goes!
