Macys Credit Line Increases

Hi, I have a question.  I have had my Macys store card now for over a year and a halfand started out with a 400 dollar credit limit. then after about 5 months they increased it to 2,000 which i was very surprized.  Although i would buy omething every month and pay bill off.  right now I am looking to increase my limit a bit higher.  The problem is i dont want to ask for too much,a fair amount. I bought a handbag in January  so right now i have a balance of 175.00.  Would it be smarter for me to pay that off in full before I apply for a credit increase?  Not sure if it make a difference.   Any advice would be so appreciated !

@Hollywppdhillslady,

 

You don't have to pay the balance off to ask for a CLI.  You can ask anytime you want.  It will all come down to your entire credit profile.  Will keep my fingers crossed for you.

If I'm not mistaken, Macys CLIs are soft pulls also so you have nothing to lose.


Somebody correct me if I'm wrong

Glad to know they are soft pulls and it would not not be a hard pull .  I hear so many different things that it may be a hard pull but then it might be a soft pull.  thanks for the info
