Sam's MC CLI --> $25K Finally (credit solutions - 877-379-8173 )

So, I haven't been using the card since Dec 2015 because they seemed to keep me limited to $11K for no reason and had even called CS before a couple of times. I was getting the run around of "your profile at this time yada yada yada. Sorry we can't give you a reason why...." message from them. I stumbled upon a couple of threads today though listing a foreign CS phone number in which there were several positive posts about the CSR's in this particular call center granting / countering on CLI's unlike the US based CC. So, since 3/2015 I've been hitting the button online and every time getting the same BS "you'll get a letter in 7-10 days" message with the same CL listed on it.

 

So, if you have Stynchrony accounts and your profile supports higher limits but you've been getting the run around here's the number to call to bypass all of the BS:

 

877-379-8173

 

I asked for $30K and they countered with $25K w/o providing POI documentation to go higher. I guess they'll send a letter stating why they had to counter instead of matching AMEX / Disc / JFCU limits.

Congrats on your CLI. I called the same number yesterday and got a huge bump.

@floato - I think you may have inspired me to make the call to the other number actually.  thanks for posting the info which lead me down the synchrony rabbit hole to my success with those stubborn bastards!

Congrats on the awesome CLI! 

 

That's the same number I used for my last two (generous) CLIs, and both times I got exactly what I asked for as well... I'm fairly certain it's overseas but they were extremely professional (for the record, even if they had turned me down I would still say they were professional, since they were).

 

You're right that there are quite a few folks on here - myself included - who have had a positive experience with that number!  (I always suggest to try it first.)

Wow, congratulations! Thanks for posting I read your post and decided to give it a try and called and got a bump from $2500 to $15,000, Thanks! Also a question is this number just for Sam's or any synchrony card?

That's a great result as well.  It's the general CS number for all Sync accounts.  Lowes, sam's, etc.

*chuckles*   that's what's supposed to happen when provided with the powerful knowledge you can only find on MyFico Forums 

 

15K is a pretty good haul though for a couple of mins on the phone with CS
