AMEX raised my limit automatically..! 😲

Gregory1776 · ‎05-24-2021

Just saw an American Express email from early in the morning, they raised my credit limit to 28,300. Coming from 21,800,I think.

This is a shock because I asked for 3 increases or so since my last (all denied), and I have a balance I've been carrying for far too long on the account. Totally unexpected behavior.
