I personally LUV Barclay's!

IaBoy62 — Fri, 09 Jan 2015 16:43:34 GMT

Talked to a very nice analyst just now at Barclay's.

He took me from $250 to $2500 on my Choice Privilages VISA. Yes, HP.

He took me from $1450 to $5000 on my Rewards Mastercard. Yes, another HP.

The VISA is short of 4th statement and the Mastercard is short of the 14th statement.

He asked about the 15 new accounts over the last 18 months but didn't seem too bothered.

I put lots of spending on these cards and usually pay several times a week or month.

Walmart FICO says 650 today.

That's awesome. I'm close to my six month auto CLI. Just dropped my original hard inquiry after two years. Wondering if I'll get any more $$$, My last CLI was only $400. Prett.y sure I'm close to maxed out

hrmmmm, those are only TU pulls and somehow fall off my reports in a month or two. I wonder if new acounts hurt CLI chances with Barclay.

i may give them a call sometime.

congrats!

Yea, I wasn't too worried about 2 TU pulls. He complimented me several times on how I paid the accounts so well. Call 'em!

Heh

I was grilled over my own 13 or so new accounts when i invaded their Recon realm trying to land Sallie Mae. Needless to say they want me to sweat awhile longer. That being said i really grown to warm up to Barclays now that i have one of their cards and become a regular in the Recon calls list

CONGRATS!!! Double Yippee!!!

Be careful, barclays has been known to close accounts because of too many new accounts.

Congratulations! That is definitely nice work on a barclays hp credit limit increase!

Before I closed my Apple Card I requested a cli, i was granted only a 300 dollar one.

I called the recom number toward the end of the day, the guy was so nice and asked me barely any questions except how the computer definitely should have showed me more luv. he also mentioned my excellent payment history and bumped me 3k more.

then i received a letter in the mail basically stating the new limit and it was full of nice comments about my credit and payment history.

I then have sucessfully reconed the limit on salliemae, arrival plus and us airways upon approval.

they are nice to deal with and never seem too annoyed with you.
