Timeline for CLI with Amazon Store Card

Anonymous — Mon, 05 Feb 2018 17:52:06 GMT

I apped for the Amazon Store Card just about a month ago in the hopes of getting cash back on a dining room set that I have had my eye on. I received a measly limit of $250, which doesn't go far. I have tried for CLI both via phone and chat and get denied each time. I have made two purchases on the card (both about $150) and paid in full. Do you think I will qualify for a CLI once the statement posts, or should I just put it on my Discover card and take the 2% cashback with the match.

Synch can be funny. I got the Amazon card with a 700 starting limit, and it took excatly 3 statement cuts before i could get it up to 5,000 which is where it's at now. My hubsand got the card in Novemeber of 2017 with a 300 limit and within the first statement cut they gave him an auto cli to 4,800. It might take you the whole 3 statements for them to raise it, but if your score is in the 700,s it will go pretty high. Hang in there!!

Fingers crossed I get a CLI at statement cut. I can live without a dining room table, but don't really want to wait two more months. However 5% back vs 2% might be worth it!

Ive had mine for six months and its still at 600, meanwhile my walmart card went from 500 to 3500 at the 60 day mark and my bp card went from 200 to 2000 three weeks after i got it

it makes perfect sense

I got mine in late October with. $1200 SL. Just requested and received a CLI via chat to $3000 three weeks ago. This was between my 3rd and 4th statements.

Might have gotten more than the $3000 if I'd asked, but $3000 in plenty for my needs right now. Moderate usage on the card and a zero balance at the time of the request, always PIF.

Amazon card doesn't have an annual fee.
Your prime membership does.

I was talking about the Credit One card.
