Barclay rewards auto increase :)

StartingOver7 — Tue, 24 Feb 2015 20:15:17 GMT

Wow, this was unexpected. Just last week I posted that my QS1 increased from $500 to $1500 by using the LUV button after only having it for 3 months. Today I logged into my Barclay account and noticed that they auto increased me from $500 to $1500! I've had this card for 5 months. I truly did not expect this as I'm currently carrying balances across most of my cards, and was at 45% util on my Barclay card.

For anyone who's interested, my pymt history on this card is as follows: maxed out and PIF for 2 months, maxed out and paid half the balance for 1 month, spent 0 and paid min balance for 1 month, spent about $100 and paid $100 this month. This was another card (like my QS1) that I was getting ready to PIF soon because I was hoping I'd be eligible for an increasse at the 6 month mark, but they beat me to the punch! My TU Fico according to their site is 639, which is 11 points less than it was in December, probably due to my utilization. I can't wait to see my updated scores after I pay down all my balances.

After my rollercoster of credit woes the past few years, I'm finally seeing the rewards of all my hard credit repair work and I'm super excited!!

It's by far my favorite card. They can be really generous with CLI's, especially once you've had the card for a year.

They just recently doubled my cli from 2k to 4k. Congrats.

I've had my barclay card right at 6 months... I think it will be the early part of next month. No increase yet. I've carried a rather high balance a few times and I'll pay a huge amount. My last payment was 620. The limit is 1000. Let us hope the limit will be substantial after the increase

I signed in this morning (statement close day) and LO... increase to $2700

I have had 3 Barclay cards for almost a year and have not used them. I think I may have to switch this up with amex just to get CLI.
