Question about Macys

Anonymous — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 17:06:48 GMT

Is it normal to receive an auto CLI from Macys after one month of having the card? When I received the card last month, I was told my CL was $400. So the past month and a half I have spent about $250 at Macys and of course PIF. Today I pull my CR and I notice the my CL is now $600. Does this affect my GLI every 3 months?

The same thing happened to me. I had my card for only one month, made a small purchase on, paid the bill in store right after the purchase and them BAM! $200.00 CLI!

Were you still able to get a GLI after 3 months?

I don't know yet because I only opened my account in March .I have heard very good things about Macy's in this forum. Try doing a search for Macy's CLI's and see what pops up.

Good luck!

I received an automatic CLI around Christmas, right before it was time to ask for my next GLI. I was still able to get the GLI. It seems that Macy's will occasionally give you surprise increases, which do not affect your ability to ask for and receive GLIs every 3 months. As long as you're using the card, that is.
