No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
It's still confusing AF. First they say 6 months when you apply, then on the website it says "several months". No good asking them either because the reps barely speak English and only read from pre written responses.

New DP: I just got rejected again. Same reason as last month, "account is too new". And I got my card about a month before you did. 7 full statements.
Frustrating!! If I see that on January 7 when my 7th statement closes, I'm calling them. That's frustrating too though, because if you ask to speak to a manager, it's also a heavy accented person who has zero power to do anything.
Do not get your hopes up, they are very useless card issuer. I have their card for 2 years with a limit of $1650. I spend like 800-1000 on this card montly, and PIF every months. I requested for a CLI, these suckers only offered $150 which I rejected. Speaking on the phone will not yield any result as they have their targeted customers which you and I may not fit in. They target people that have subprime scores and carry balance so that they charge interest so if you PIF and they are not making any money off you then forget about a CLI. They are my oldest card and that is why I still put up with their nonsense for CLI and wait another 6 months just be offered another $150.
I had a Cap 1 QS for 3 years before I got a signifigant CLI then BOOM last month a 4k auto CLI...(maybe they realized they were behind)
I'm not getting my hopes up. I think it sucks to be bucketed with a quicksilver that has a 0 annual fee.
What were your increase amounts before the big one?

You might want to use the quote feature in the top right (blue button) of the "Reply to message" screen when replying, as it's hard to tell who you're responding to.

Just a quick update... it's been 7.5 months. I requested a CLI online and they offered me a whopping $100 more for a total CLI of $400. I declined. I'd rather wait and see what kind of auto CLI I may get in the future. What a load of 💩!!
