Finally got some CLIs from GECRB

Datx — Thu, 14 Feb 2013 14:04:17 GMT

Its been awhile since I had any CLI from GECRB. I have heard of recent success on calling GE underwriters, but im not going to mess with that right now. I just did the CLI request online and here is what I got:

Walmart Store Card: $1050 to new CL of $1950

Amazon Store Card: $1000 to new CL of $1600

eBay Mastercard: $1500 to new CL of $2500

Had to call in and use the automated system for the CLI on the eBay MC. Total of $2500 in total increase is not too shabby I guess. For whatever reason, I got the smallest CLI on my Amazon card even though I use it alot more than the Walmart card. Only difference is the Walmart card has a zero balance while my Amazon card has a $100 balance.

If you want more call in and ask to be transferred for a Manual Review and they will pull a fresh SP report and give you CLI... What other kinds of credit lines do you have... I would start with the one you use and like the most and ask for $10,000... they will counter... if you get some really good success, ask them to then look at your other account and repeat! If not so good, hang up and then call back to do the manual requests on the others! But truley ASK for $10k!

You'd prob be at $5k per card if you'd alot yourself 10 mins to call GE Cred Solutions ;-)

It's your cred though!:-)

I called Credit Solutions I believe this past Friday or Saturday and was told no on both my Amazon and Walmart cards. My Walmart card I thought I had a better chance on, since its been 4 statements since my last CLI. Rep said they couldnt raise it anymore and I would get a letter.

Well just now, I logged on to my Walmart account and requested a CLI. I went from $1950 to now a new CLI of $2750...so an increase of $800. Weird that I get declined from Credit Solutions, but the online CLI system gave me one. Waiting for my Amazon card and my eBay MC to hit the 4th statement since my last increase before I try on those two accounts.

The general wisdom is to call GECRB Credit Solutions once every four months without fail. This will yield you the best CLI's. The luv button always leans to the minimum increase.

The old way was to request online luv every 4 months. The mod way for more bang per request is to aim high and place a call to U/W whenever (no time restriction if eligible.) They are not pushovers, however, and will deny for a variety of reasons but often approve for healthy icreases, especially for those with good+ profiles.

last time i called for walmart to be increased from 5k too 10k they denied and didnt counter, im pretty sure its because i only used personal income at 32k but that worked for the 5k =/

Thanks!

Another update:

Amazon store card CL of $1600 is now at $2200. I waited right at midnight tonight (here in TX) for my 4th statement to cut from my last CLI request and got an increase of $600.

Walmart was $1950 and now at $2750 that I got just a few days ago.

My Ebay MC is still at $2500. I should have 4 statements from my last CLI by now, but last month I did not have a balance so a statement was not generated for that month. Will have to wait til next month before I can try asking for a CLI again.

I have had no luck on CLIs calling Credit Solutions. I will just stick to asking CLI online as long as I keep on getting bumped up.

I will have to try the luv button one day.

My Walmart CL is $1800, Amazon is $2600, and Lowe's $3000.
