Re: OMG!! Must read!! J CREW HUGE CLI via automated!!

19 attempts has me ROFL, thinking about the excuses you might make if you had to explain your actions to Comenity, LOL. Here are a few ideas that might work in your favor:

 

1. I have OCD and could not stop!

2. I just finished watching 'Groundhog Day' and was having a flashback!

3. I was stuck in the Twilight Zone and had to do it 19 times to escape. 

 

Let's hope they never notice. :-)

It took me 8 attempts Smiley LOL until automated girl finally said denied. Couldn't contain myself everytime she'd say "Congratulations...." and then a few seconds later I would shout back "Main menu" and "Credit Line Increase".

Ok... So last week poster "Credit Addict" posted his/her cli on j crew via automated phone increase. I did it last week and took my crew card from $250 to $450. The automated  phone cli deal will only give you $200 cli at a time, and the trick to it is when the automated lady asked you, " are you requesting a specific cli amount?" You say, NO..... Well, tonight I'm sitting here and thought I'd try my crew card again and it worked!! Then I remembered another poster said she didn't hang up and call back, she just keep going thru the automated thing and keep getting increases till she finally got a decline. Soooooo, I did that too.....19 freaking times!!!! Lmaol!!

 

I went from $450 cl to.......$4,250!!!! Omg, I'm still laughing and in shock!!  I've had the card 7 months. Hoping to try this with my Loft card in a few monthsSmiley Wink  craziness I tell ya!


Congratulations on your CLI! Smiley Happy Thanks for sharing. Good tenacity! Smiley Wink
