Tiny poke of the Synchrony Bank bear

willmsbrg — Mon, 27 Nov 2023 15:26:25 GMT

I decided to take a small poke at the bear on my Amazon store card today..

When I got this card it started with 600.00 in Dec2021 and back in July I asked to double it and was approved for 1200.00

Today I decided once more and asked to go to 2500.00 and I was amazed to get it instantly...

I'm done poking this one till mid 2024 for sure. Happy for the little wins....

I'd love the chase card but never get that pre-approval...

If this is your only Sync card, try to aim for $10,000.

This is my only Sync card... interesting goal to strive for... anyone know the max limit one can request per time with Sync?

@willmsbrg, You can request as much as you want (ask high)

They will counter offer what they are willing to grant you.

For example on the Amazon Store card, you can ask $10K.

The only time you really want to be careful with Synchrony is if you have $50K in aggregate limits across multiple cards,

also with "credit seeking behavior".

Aah okay, that's great to know..Honestly, I've not seen any other Sync cards that would be of interest to me currently...

I'll just keep pushing some spend thru this card till end of April, beginning of May 24 and see how it goes!!
