Thanks you guys! I will look into these cards. Right now I just have a Discover card and then Cap1 Quicksilver and Platinum

If you have had both Cap1 cards for over 6 months I would request CLI on both online and then consolidate.

Re: Cards with higher limits

Since you have history with Capital One, the Venture card is known for giving high limits.  If you're looking for a high limit and your record with Cap One is clean, that might be your best bet.  Penfed and NFCU are great suggestions as well.

Can anyone recommend a card that gives a generous initial credit limit?  My scores are in the 700-710 range. I would prefer something that pulls Equifax or TU as I will be applying for a Lowes card (Experian pull).


What do you consider a generous initial limit? If it's $5k, I think most banks will be fine with at least one of their offerings. If you're looking for a $25k limit, it's a bit more exclusive.

 

Chase pulls Experian but they seem to throw out reasonable limits. Years ago they started me at $15k with a score in the high 600s and the last two cards I got from Chase started at $30k each (scores in the mid 700s). They would be my recommendation.

 

Citi is a bit more reserved, but at your scores my experience has been you should get around $10k. I think they pulled Equifax for me but don't remember.

 

CapOne hates me (and I them), so I've never passed so much as the $1k mark with them. I read a lot of posts indicating they can be good with starting limits, though.

 

Barclays is spinning the wheel. You may get $1k or $10k, and no telling when or if they'll adjust it...up or down.

 

I have no history or experience with AmEx, Discover, Synchrony, Comenity, BofA, or any CU cards so can't speak to their tendencies.

Re: Cards with higher limits

I would agree that income plays a big factor with SL.
