I cant stand Barclay RECON! They are all very demeaning, in regards to credit issues and have caleld 15 times today! I will call until I get a REP who raises my CL .. they did last month, but it took many calls. I do not believe one should be punished for issues of the FAR past (6-7 years, about to age off!). Myline is $1500, score 590-640 depending.. But they dont care about the score, they say! CALL CALL CALL ? I have heard of account closures but TBH I really do not care, I've already recon'd 20 times since December! LOLOL!!!! AND GO!

@Anonymous,
You are doing yourself more harm than good. If you are saying you keep calling Barclays to demand a CLI, you can call and call and it is for them to decide as they are not obligated to give you a CLI. Perhaps, what I'd do in your case is take a step back and regroup my strategy on getting the CLI. Research helps.. The credit game requires patience and it is OK to rant. But take a step back, list why they have refused you the many times you have called and then plan a strategy.
Have you considered they may be noting your account each time you call? Calling a 2nd or 3rd time for an additional opinion might make sense, but calling 15-20 times just screams out to a CCC "difficult customer" and "costing us a ton of money".
You rant that they aren't considering your score of 590-640, but I'd argue your current CL is very much in line with your scores.
I think some time and patience are what you need to get what you want.
Well, to all those offering real advice -- thank you. To all those offering crude advice or rumpatoots, your "help" is not needed. I believe I am due an icrease based on my high income ($82,000) as an NP, and my positive trade lines over the past 3 years. ALL items are reporting as current, save 2 collections that are 7 years old, aging off soon! So I will call weekly, until I am assisted. If they close me out, so be it ! They won't get money from me !
I can promise you that they keep track alright.
They remembered like it was yesterday my pair of Recons from October when i called them Friday trying again for the Sallie Mae.

Call as much as you want, I guarantee they have calls logs like I do at my workplace.
2-3 times is OK and understandable but you are out of line..... accept reality for what it is!
