It must be partly luck. the first 5 months i had the card i used 40 pct of the cl each month and pif AFTER the statement cut , 300 - auto to 1800 at 5th month. then i used the card every month and kept at least a 30 - 40 pct of cl running balance and at month 11 i requested a cli and got 200, 1800 - 2000. then i carried about a 40 pct running balance using the card every month but 3 months ago i paid it to zero and let it sit 2 months, this month i put 1 6 dollar charge on it. cap 1 is a head scratcher.

I just got an email from cap 1 that my QS just got a bump to 5k, was previously 2k.

i havent used the card for a couple of months until this month when i charged 6 bucks on it, otherwise i would pif each month. i was using up to 800 a month of cl before about 3 months ago. i thought this card was bucketed because it started as a 300 platinum  may 2021.

300 - 1800 - 2000 - 5000 since may 2021.

my only requested cli was the 1800 - 2000 one  april 2022


@SUPERSQUID woah....you weren't kidding, that is huge for C1, CONGRATS!!!!
