Wow, next thing they'll probably try to upgrade you to Venture after a while, they seem to be actively promoting that card to cash rewards users with lines nearing the required for visa sig these days.

Hope my friend see some of this soon, 1 friend has been with Cap1 since he was 18 with $500 CL (he is 26 now). As of about 4 months ago I told him he was crazy to not get new cards... Citi Forward $7700 and Amex Blue Plus whatever it's called 4k... come on Cap1 catch up!

Congratulations on the CLI.  I am surprised that they jumped it up that much.  Out of curiosity, what are your FICO scores?  How long have you had the card?  Thanks.


Starting Score: 583 EQ, 612 EX, 569 TU
Current Score: 658 EQ, 648 EX, 618 TU

Congrats -- very nice increase! From my recent experience and that of others, it seems that Cap1 is starting to loosen up a bit. Here's hoping the trend continues.

i have had a secured card with them for 13 months that was supposed to become unsecured.  I have tried to contact them a few times but they won't budge.

Same here, and my platinum now has a $ 2,750 CL and no AF. One can obviously do better with prime cards, but no reason to get rid of it...
