How did it turn out??
So I hit the button and it gave me the number to contact customer service.
Why???
Any pointers?
It gave me the number to call also on day 32. I was denied. Even though my scores were higher than when I applied 32 days ago. They hard pulled EQ and they told me it would be a hard pull. Will try again myself in a few months. I did put 30% spend on it the first month and PIF before statement cut. Which I didn't know my statement date at the time. Hoping to some SP requests soon. Whether it's a denial or approval. Set my garden timeline back. I understand I should be prepared to receive a HP anytime I ask for credit though. Increases included. I read somewhere on here that the first one is always a HP. Might be some hidden method that they become SP after X amount of time?
@Whitneyy , I also had a Macys card when I was 18 and I am now 31 almost 32. The limit was only $400 but im pretty sure i didnt pay it... I was approved this past weekend for the Macys Amex so enough time must have passed for us!
Sorry about your CLI denial and HP. They told you ahead of time they would HP? I have read through alot of Macys posts here for CLI's and i have noticed a bit of a trend with the 31 day mark on the acct being a HP. Or at the very least having to call in. I wonder if its better to wait until 61 days? Hmm....I too am looking to grow this puppy and i am wondering what my best course will be. Personally if this one doesnt grow for me ill close it bc i really dont need a Macys card.

It was random for me for a while. I would get that message call in and get approved/denied for a CLI. Now I'm back to the using the website for CLIs.
Well I was denied and it was a hardpull.
I'll try in 90 days, if no - I can close. Not much to do with $200.

Don't let that discourage you @Whitneyy. Keep trying. After all, you managed to re-establish the relationship. If @AverageJoesCredit can do it, so can you.

Its when you go into your bathroom, close the door , turn off the lights and say Bloody Macys, Bloody Macys Bloody Macys 3 times ! Turn on light , exit bathroom, turn on phone/lt/computer enter myFico.com/forums and watch as your credit limit increase 10 fold just by chanting that mantra!
😁
Jk, Macys trick is by getting a Macys card and asking for a cli every 31 days to try and go from $300 to $25k in under a year. The treat is if it works
Congrats OP on the card and sorry about the cli
LOL I know what movie you got Bloody Macys from lol. Overboard 2. She said Bloody ??????????? lol

I don't remember that movie. I thought he was just making fun of Bloody Mary. We played that as a pre-teen/teen, and you just hoped she didn't appear. 😂 😂
