LUV Button Success!

Anonymous — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 13:24:45 GMT

I noticed on my report a soft inquiry from Lowes/GEMB, so I decided to hit the LUV button today. Instantly went from $4,500 to $9,000! I've had the card since 2007 and started out with a $1,200 CL.

Sears and Menards also soft pulled me within the past 3 months, so I hit the LUV button with them as well. The online form at Sears asked me how much of an increase I wanted, so I put $2,400. I pressed submit and got the message "You'll receive a response from us via U.S. mail within 7-10 business days". I logged out of my account, logged back in about 30 minutes later, and my CL had increased from $4,600 to $7,000!

Menards was an instant increase from $4,400 to $5,300.

Not a bad day!

Congratz. Do you mind me asking if you know what your scores were when you were approved for the increase? Thanks!

Not sure about TU or EX, but my EQ score is 769. I have no lates and 2% util on my revolving accounts.
