Hi Smoop88,

 

I have a store card with Amazon and I was given an $800 limit. It was my first "store card" and was still more than I was expecting. I've had this card a little over 4 months, and recently requested for a CLI which was denied. I use this card a lot and was hoping to get an additional line of credit to help with my utilization! Just not my time yet...


I've had better luck using the chat function, but even with that there seems to be something within the system that only allows increases if your score is at a certain level.  Amazon and Walmart seem to be more like that than say Sam's or Lowes.


I have been stuck on my amazon and wally at 700 & 400 for 2 yrs without any CLI, no matter what I tried.

 

Then all of  a sudden last week, I pushed the love button and what do you know, I got CLI on amazon and wally on a same day.

 

I have to believe it was my scores on TU, which just never seem to budge. The only thing I kept thinking was my BK reporting.

 

But I also realized that my score had finally gone up to 660 on TU last week, So from here on out Ishould be able to get CLI on a consistant basis.....

 

BTW amazon CLI to 2200 and wally to 1000....lol

Congrats by the way.  Once you get your score up, it seems that it becomes easier to get CLIs.

It is hard to be patient, but sometimes that is the only way. Many of us with large credit lines started right where you are. It will happen.Smiley Happy

I got on the online chat last night with Amazon & Wally and asked for 5K again, and they countered 3500 each.....Smiley Surprised

 

Yes you are right, it does seem to get easier once my score started to go up.....I guess my question is or was, what took me so long,Smiley Very Happy

You know, One thing I have noticed is that, when I called in, They never asked me how much I wanted.

 

But the on-line chat, they asked me how much I wanted and I asked for 5K(I suppose I could have asked for 10K like everyone else have,but didnt have the nerve)

 

And they countered 3500. Finally, I 'm beginning to see some light at the end of a tunnel.( been stuck on 700 & 400 for 2 yrs ).

Re: AMAZON still not budging!!

Thanks everyone for your help. After reading the threads I realized I'm not pushing enough through the card and YES my TU has been stuck for awhile I'll wait it out as I actually have been using my Walmart a little more but nonetheless there was a point where I always wanted an Walmart but always got denied my GECMB aka synchrony now they are my best friends

From what I've dealt with Amazon, it seems that score factors a lot with them.  My last increase was from $4k to $6k while my TU around 675.  I don't see them giving me anything else until my TU reaches 700.  Keep working on getting your scores up and you'll get your increase.  ☺☺☺

 

 


I agree with kaykay65.  My experience with Amazon and Walmart are based on your TU score.
