Welcome. Without knowing any of your stats. As you grow with Cap1 in most cases. The SL's increase also. You didnt say how many cards you have. Whats in your wallet now and when did you get them. That would help.

I have Ollo $500, Merrick Bank $1100, Ulta $500, Capital1 $500, and Kohls $300. Bk discharged 10/19,you mean 10/18? my scores started terrible of course, but are now all around 650. I got all these cards within 3 months of my discharge, so they all have a solid 6-7 months of reporting. I would love a higher limit card but don't want to pull the trigger for another $500 sl. My MB card is set to double to $2200 next month, and Kohls of course is terrible with upping limits, but they are Cap1, so I just don't know if I should bother with the 'preapproved' offer due to the wording of the offer.
Your best shot is wait a little longer. At least until these all the HP's that led to your approvals fall of the FICO radar after 1 year. 5 cards back to back in 3 months was a tad too much. And they are still young. Get a year or more in and you'll be in a btter position then. I'd say give it another 6 months until the next app. If you didn't burn Disco. You could try then. It wont take much longer to get where you want to be. Time is your best friend for now. Hope your keeping your util low as you use the cards. Baby steps for now. Your almost there.
Oh well. That sucks. Take it as a sign your time isnt ready just to grow with another card yet. Good things come to those who wait. Little more time and they will come easier next time.
On an odd note, looking at your name (firemedic), do you happen to have a car with that license plate?
Wow! C1 gave you a $2500 increase?? I wish! I started at $300 then went to $500 after my first 5 payments, that was 2 months ago...hopefully they reward me with a big increase like you! And yes, 10/18 was my discharge date. Next month, 1 year out!
