I went for the Banana Republic Increase and they gave me $1,000 increase. Kind of disappointing because I wanted a bigger increase for some camera equipment as a gift for Christmas. Should I call the backdoor number or is it one of those you get a increase and have to wait again situations ?


was that button, chat, or credit solutions call?


The button.


Do chat if that comes up when you sign in... don't chicken and only ask for $2-$3k! they will counter

so... Start the chat, I was able to recently get a small credit line increase through the online request but going into the holidays I was hoping to make this my go to card and I wanted to see if you could consider the account for a larger credit line increase.

GE -  sure, to be able to do that may i know how much you would like?

you - $25k would be helpful

GE - and i will need your net income blah blah

please hold while i review your account.

hold hold hold

hold hold hold

so we are not able to do $25k but I can offer you $17k, would that be okay?

YES, Thank you so much!

And I forgot to mention I was denied on my Capital One as well. Oddly it said " Your request has been recieved, check your account in 2-3 days, to see our decison". lol but I knew that was a denial as well.
