capital one cli question

Anonymous — Sun, 15 Mar 2015 14:20:31 GMT

I am set to have my 6th statement cut on April 6th. My starting limit was $300 and was a platinum card. Last month I hit the luv button and they increased it to $800. I then did an online chat and had a PC to a quicksilver one card.

Next month I am expecting they will give me $500 for my auto increase. Has anyone had any luck doing a recon after a credit step increase?

I have to buy plane tickets to see my son graduate in May and I don't want to max out a credit card, so I would like at least a $1000 increase instead of the $500 I'm expecting.

yes, I have seen MANY say they got more than what they expected ($500) you just really never know about Cap One. If you do get the $500 as you expect speak to the EO and let them know that you were hoping for more for the reason that you just said. More than a few have also had success doing this. Good Luck!

Should I email or call the EO? If needed ...

You can try the EO it never hurts. Worse case scenario they say "no"

As stated email the EO. It didn't work for me but I think I shot myself in the foot with a lot of inquiries and high utilization. Good luck! Oh yeah, it takes a couple weeks to get back to you after you email the EO. Include a telephone number in your request. Good luck!
