Hey everybody! Hope all is going well in your credit journeys today. Just wanted to give a heads up on this CLI I just received from Barclay. This happened exactly on the 6 month mark. My util is still also a little higher than I would like (60%). I've been charging a few things and babying this Itunes Rewards card and I checked my EQ yesterday and saw that Barclay took my limit from $1500 to $2700! I didn't ask for the CLI, and I don't plan on doing that for any of my cards this year. Oh yeah, I applied for and received an AMEX Zync within the scary Barclay "trial period", but YMMV.
If you want any more info on my profile at the time of CLI let me know. (Back to goodwill letters)

Yeah, it was the same day. I wasn't expecting that. I even had a balance of like $550 on it.

oh ok, I opened my account on 11/22 had 6 statements already but the 6th one I was not yet at 6 months so maybe my next statement I will see something or maybe not
John, we opened at the same time. Look like we're in the same position. I keep logging in hoping for a CLI. 
So far, no dice. I also have a hunch that it might have to do with whether or not we reconed our CL when we were approved. But hope springs eternal.

I wonder if they will give CLI on accounts that received recon increases when they were first opened.
Thanks, yeah I did a recon increase that took me from $750 to $1500 the same day I got approved. The rep was very nice, asked me about a couple old baddies and got the cli approved.
Bichonmon, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you and John. I did a recon cli the same day I was approved.
