November 2016. no Clue didnt get a inquriy alert yet so maybe it is a soft pull. my 2 other sycronies have lower limits and were denied a increase thru chat so this was a suprise.

Synchrony cli requests are normaly sp. If it were a card under Synchrony Financial, hp . Congrats on your increase. Most of the times i hit the luv button i get rejected too so no sweat i think thats just computer based whereas chat and calling credit sloutions actually involves some form of human interaction. My thought anyway

I'm wondering if luv button uses the last SP but CS pulls a fresh one? I was denied a bunch on the luv button. Called in and got $4k (from $900).

I want $10k! Haha! Way to grow OP!

I've had an Amazon Store Card since last Thanksgiving myself, $800 line, so I've started thinking about asking for a CLI. I've recently been approved for two cards with four-figure lines (Cap One unsecured, $3k and Discover It, $2.5k) so I don't know how that would affect the case; also, if my understanding is correct, it might actually work better to talk to someone in person (either over online chat or phone) than go through the online CLI request page. Advice? Also, sounds like my target should probably be around $3k.

EDIT 3/23: My next payment on the Amazon card is scheduled for tomorrow, so I'm considering pulling the trigger on the "luv button" then chat progression once that payment is processed. Following the OP, I probably should ask for twice what I really want, which is about $3000, so maybe ask for $6000...?

Payment processed, so since live chat wasn't available I pressed the "luv button", entering my current net income (which has gone up by nearly $3,000/year since I was originally approved thanks to raises and promotion). I didn't get denied - not exactly; what I got was the dreaded "we'll notify you of our decision in 7-10 days" message. What next? Do I try Live Chat when it becomes available, or do I go straight to Synchrony's Credit Solutions (as I'm hearing-impaired I'll have to place a TDD call, which I hate doing these days)? I've been advised elsewhere, by the way, to ask for a CLI to $10k and see what comes of that.

It all depends on your score ,Synch is very score strong , but if your TU is above 660 you have a good chance to get anywhere from like 5 to 10k , always been told to ask big with them and they will counter if it's avail for you

Got approved for $1800 at Amazon store. I wonder if the system looks at your purchase/member history. I have bought a lot of stuff since 2000, but I will never need $1800 at a pop..

Tried to apply for eBay Mastercard & it wouldn't even let me get started. Said my app could not be processed. Weird.

I had some luck getting CLI's when I first got this card >2yrs ago. For awhile I was able to get CLI's ever 60 or 90 days or so. Brought the limit up from the initial $500 or whatever they gave me to $5000.

But now it's been 449 days since my last CLI and nothing. They just keep denying me and sending me letters that say "by policy" or some such.

Guess I could try chat. It annoys me. I spend $500 on the card in many months which means the balance reports >10% and hits my FICO. Yes I know I could go pay it off in advance to prevent it from reporting, but even better in my mind would be getting the limit up to a level where I never have to worry about it and just letting autopay manage it (unless it's something serious like mortgage time then I'd do the all but 1 card thing--but that's effort).

Wondering if anybody else has gotten these consistent denials and gotten anywhere with chat or recon. I'll try that next I suppose.
