Amazon Store Card Approval - $700 - WHOO!

[shane82388]

I had been on the fence for apping for this card for a long while now since I use Amazon constantly...I like the financing offers for big purchases since every big purchase I make is through amazon for the most part.

I had read through about 20 pages of threads on this "card" and checked whogavemecredit.com and felt like I was pretty likely to be approved, minus my high utilization showing (73% showing...not actual though! Dont yell at me! )

Anyway, I got up the nerve and hit submit...instant approval for $700!

Not a huge limit but this along with a $250 CLI from Capital One today has been pretty nice.

When do they autio CLI? Can I reuqest a CLI? How soon, etc?

You can request an increase online after your 4th statement cuts. And then 8th and so forth.

Wow...thats fast. So that should possibly bump my score slightly from the extra open utilization ya think?

For me, I prefer later reporting, I hate it when it reports before I even get new plastic.

I'm sure you had a reason to app with your util that high.
