My experience with Macy's is that they only give very small CLI's every 6 months ($100-$300), but that Bloomingdale's, owned by the same bank/ company (DSNB), gives larger increases of $400-700.

Both still only give CLI's every 6 months and thre have been times they did not give them.; They're not known for frequent nor large CLI's.

If you want that, you need Barney's!

also, if you just received the card, if you call in to the number on the back upon first receiving it, they may increase your initial CLI after you answer some verification questions. Hope this helps.

Congrats. With your Ex score and # of inquiries that is great that they gave you a chance.

Just use it, carry a small or 0 balance, don't apply for any more credit so you can raise your scores, and ask for a cli at 4 months.

After I posted this, the rep convinced me to apply for Bloomingdales Card which I did and was approved for $200. I guess it is the same bank and call center. No more now. Going to garden :-)

Congrats on the approval! I got my Macys approval in Decemeber of 2014 with a $300 CL. I now have a $8000 CL! They never gave me a hard time. I did pay my balance twice month. Maybe the reason for the Macy love
