After I created my login for the website I realized they stuck me with a low $1,100 CL /:<BR />I thought I was finally starting to move up in the world of credit limits. Last 3 cards I applied were $7,100 $3,000 $5,000 Then Barclays sticks me with this?<BR /><BR />I'm wondering if the low limit has anything to do with the fact that I've applied for 4 credit cards in the last three weeks? And I'm wondering at what point should I call and ask for a CL recon? I really hope to use this card for all my gas purchases (5% cash back) and I don't want to have such a low limit that my utilization will constantly be high. Do I wait for the card to arrive before calling in or can I go ahead and handle it now? Any advice what to say to get a better chance of them raising the limit? I've never done this before /: Thu, 11 Jul 2013 03:28:20 GMT https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Cards/SallieMae-World-MC-Recon-CL/m-p/2283045#M641332 riffdex 2013-07-11T03:28:20Z https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Cards/SallieMae-World-MC-Recon-CL/m-p/2283051#M641335 <P>I would call the backdoor number in the morning and ask them to raise it to at least $5k to match the middle of your other cards!</P> Thu, 11 Jul 2013 03:30:53 GMT https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Cards/SallieMae-World-MC-Recon-CL/m-p/2283051#M641335 Creditaddict 2013-07-11T03:30:53Z https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Cards/SallieMae-World-MC-Recon-CL/m-p/2283057#M641338 <P>Do you know what they pulled?
