Re: Capital one CL increases without requesting...

Double nice Congrats X2

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?

I found that my Cap 1 card is a credit steps. Started at $500, then $750. then asked for $1500. then $2500.

Re: Capital one CL increases without requesting...

Yes, both cards were credit steps.  We started with 250 CL and within 3 months moved to 500 - we each have the blue and green cards, each with 500 CL...the green cards are the ones that increased so him from 500 to 1500 and me from 500 to 2500 (mine was higher because I have a wellsfargo card with a 2K limit right now so I guess Cap1 wanted to beat that)....either way, who cares....they increased it and we didn't even ask for it!!!  I am waiting to see if I get a HP on the CR but so far nada!

 

Happy Sunday myfico friends!
