Oops I did it again, Home Depot CC

As Lowes doesnt always carry the brands one may want, some have apped for HD. Wasnt sure if I would be approved, BK, 5/24 and so many INQ. Citi granted me a meager $500 liimit at their highest rate of 27% whoa that stings. Anyone got any thoughts of what i should do, dont wanna max this card out. Thanks

I got the card in August, apped online, same 500 limit. Called an hour later and asked for 3k and it was approved.

As for the interest rate, I either PIF or spend 299 or more and use the 6 months 0%. Otherwise I will just use another card.

Better to spend $50 on it, PIF right away or after 1st statement, your choice, then SD it if you want. This way the card has activity on it  IMO

Just call them and tell them you need more. I applied online was approved for 3k, called and asked to match my lowes card and they came back with 17k, I took it and figured I would ask for more after some usage.
