AMAZON STORE CARD - ANYONE WITH LIMIT > 10,000

I've had my Amazon store card for about a year. Started at 1,200 then quickly moved to 4K, 8K, then 10K where I am today. No love from clicking Request Increase button on website. Should I contact Credit Solutions, chat ? I am wondering if it's worth it -- I do use the card a lot, probably cycled 5K thorugh it in a year. Balance is $0. 

 

Just wondering if anyone has a limit > 10K - it seems to be a ceiling, though I have seen a few posts where they have limits up to 25K.

 

My other Synchrony card is Walmart with a 10K limit.

There are some huge limit Amazon cards out there.  I've personally witnessed $35K but the guy has only that and a Lowes card for total exposure under $60K with Sync.

 

Also this thread: http://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Cards/Amazon-Synchrony-Maximum-Credit-Line/td-p/4820235

 

What other exposure do you have with Sync?

No point to have high CL.  Only have whatever you need.  Chase allows you to transfer CL across all your personal cards.  You can certainly build a $50k CL of the Amazon.  But what for?

Re: AMAZON STORE CARD - ANYONE WITH LIMIT > 10,000

I just crossed that threshold last night. 10K to 25K. TU FICO is 736 (dipped with my last mini spree). There are multiple reports of needing a score around that or higher to break past 10K on this card. I did have to call CS to get it. Online CLI button said no and that I was at the limit allowed by their policy. I have Lowes at 35K, Google at 15K and now Amazon at 25K. No other Sync cards. Take care if you have multiple cards and you're mashing the CLI button.

A person wanting 50k on an Amazon card may be same as a person who wants a 50k limit on a CSR, all depends on what they want and how they use, no wrong or right just personal choiceSmiley Wink

I have a TU of 784. Other Synchrony exposure is 10K for WalMart store card , and 9.5K limit on Care Credit.  I suppose I don't need a higher limit, I was just curious if anyone broke the 10K barrier  - sounds like it needs a call to Credit Solutions - I probably won't poke the bear for now

 

Thanks everyone.

I got a big CLI to $3,500 from $800 on my Amazon Prime store card last week (as well as from $1,200 to $3,500 on Walmart) so I'm also not inclined to, as others say, poke the bear anymore at this point. In candor, I think the only Sync card I'd need to get over $10k anytime in the foreseeable near-mid-term future is my new Care Credit which is at $4K starting line, and then only if something went badly wrong (knock on everything wood within reach)! About the only big-ticket (as in over $100) item that I expect to purchase aside from things like medical/vet items and car maintenance anytime soon is a new tablet, and both Amazon and Walmart now have all the credit I need for that. It may, admittedly, be making a virtue of necessity since I don't have any FICO scores over 700 at this point in time and therefore wouldn't likely be eligible for any $10K+ lines, but truly, I think I'm in a pretty good place overall, if only I can get CLI's to get my Visas in line with the rest of my cards.

Amazon is my only Sync card and has been 'stuck' at $10k for a while now. I have asked and asked and always get told I am at the maximum allowed limit, even though I know this isn't true Smiley Happy I stopped asking assuming it's the BK holding me back.
