AMEX BCP - 61Day CLI

irving_magik — Tue, 06 Nov 2012 22:33:30 GMT

So today is my 61st day since activation and I just called and got me a 2x CLI..... Whoop Whoop.... (I was scared to ask for the full 3x since I don't have anything even higher thank $1500 other than by BPC and I carried a small balance with my second statement)

Started at 5k and I am now at 10k. This is my higher limit EVER!!!!!

Thanks for everybody's help!!!!

GOODBYE CAPITAL ONE... I'll be canceling one of the two this week and the other as soon as the AF is due.

lol congratz i'm kinda scared to ask for 3x too when i'm up for the CLI lol, my BCP was approved at $5,500 so that would make $16,500 but then at the sametime that would still be lower than my Navy

Thank you, I'm pretty happy at 10k for now. I will try to get my Freedom up in a couple of months and see if they'll give me over 5K so that I can get a Siggy.

I do hope to ask for 20k in six months and that should be the end of my credit journey. I will be extremely happy with a 20k BPC and a 5-10k freedom.... I may add a third card to the mix to take advantage of some of the cashback offers.

Congrats.

My goal is to have all of my cards at a 20k credit line. Amex will be close come Jan. The others will take some time to get there.

Thanks a good goal,,,,, we might have a similar credit card line up, although I really only have need for three... Aside from your BCE and Freedom, which of the other cards would be your favorite. That is to say, if you had to cancel two of your cards, which would you keep?
