All i want for Christmas is a very FIRST! Sallie Mae. It's 2 tries down and looking for the 3rd time charm in 2015
You could have reconned until they gave you it.
Nope can do. Been there done that x3 and anyway if recent history is any sign, the last time that they shot it down i came back 4 months later for Rewards Card and they shocked with an Instant 5K! approval. So i'm going by their playbook again
But then you're doing what they want you to. Force their hand!
With 5 recent new approvals i think that's plenty enough for awhile. Besides the SL will be better next time around. I can wait another 3 months

But alright, it's your HP to waste.

Nice to know that you are so uniquely privy to how Barclay's assign their limits and when 
And yes, it will eventually prove to be a HP well spent afterall.

I have been a good boy this year with regards to being great with my credit, lets forget about prior years geeze!
They don't backdate to AU MSDs. #FunFact
All I want for christmas is the $200 bonus from the freedom....but I dont need another app right now =/
@CM7
Barclays continues to be an odd child when it comes to CC approvals. I was not implying that you building a relationship with them on another product wouldn't help you with a higher limit on a SM. I did however mean to say to not expect it. There is a member who has a 10K SM, and wound up with a ~$2,000 SM on their second.
So as you see there really is no SET method with this issuer.

They can go either way for sure. It's just a matter of precision timing sometimes and hitting that choice sweet spot aka: letting the clock tick down just long enough months to better position for bargaining when they turn up the interrogation heat
I have all the cards I want for now (and a few I want to close) but I'd love to have Diner's remove a couple of HP's. lol Going to try again on Monday...
