Amazon Approval

Today I applied for the Amazon store card (non-visa) and was approved for $1700, ok cool.  I talked to someone in credit services asked to speak to someone else ( there was a language barrier) the person I was trasferred to had the same language barrierSmiley Sad I asked about a credit limit increase he stated that since it was a same day app they will look at the pulled report and it wouldnt result in a hard pull so...... BAM 2k was approved, i asked if he could go higher, he said all he does is submits it, so i said ok 4k......BAM approved. I should of kep going Smiley Very Happy  so if you get approved call in and ask to be transferred to credit services and I can almost guarantee you youll get a higher limit with no HP.  That was my 3rd inquiry for my 723 Transunion. These are all "facts", hopefully benefits some and minimizies all the "what if" "what do you think" questions

Re: Amazon Approval

Congrats 

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Re: Amazon Approval

I said "card" but I called again and they mentioned it will not be on a card. Being that I applied today and could of cared less if it came on a yellow sticky note with gum stuck to the back of itSmiley Surprised my apologies, had no idea a "card" would not be issued, We will see, that "language barrier" could of been the problem... 1866 634 8379, you have to press 6 instead of the 0 to avoid the prompt.
