Hi All,
I lurk more than post, but just thought I’d give an update about my GE cards. Back in January I hit the love button on my Walmart card (first time ever) and my credit line was increased from $600 to $1200. I was emboldened by this and the fact that GE does soft pulls (right now I’m gardening for all of 2012 while I decrease my horrific utilization and let tons of inquiries age off), so I called in and used the automated system for credit line increases on my PayPal SC my Amazon cards. I was declined for both, and got letters just last week explaining why they were denied (something weird like lack of experience using current limits??? – don’t remember exactly and have already shredded the letters).
Anyway, I logged on today to pay this month’s statements, and my Amazon credit line had been increased from $1100 to $1900. Pleasantly surprised, so off I went to pay my PayPal account – and yes, the same thing had happened; went from $800 to $1700. 
Lovin’ GE, as my only problem right now is high utilization; adding another $1700 to my available credit will only help with this. 
Nice!

Congrats!!!

I got a WM in Nov w/only $300 CL and hit the luv button several times (when it was still working) and got the same response as you, "not enough time at current limit." Then got an auto-CLI a month or so ago to $1k.
I think that's how GE operates. I've even called in to complain about a lack of CLI and later received an auto CLI. Last month I tried for a CLI on my ON card and got denied (hadn't quite been 4 months) but I will probably get an auto CLI within the next few months.

I'm hoping soon myself i;ll start getting auto's, I think I underbid myself when I have to tell them what I want 
The autos will come as your scores increase and your history with them grows. I didn't get any CLIs with them for a while. I started out at $300 and stayed below $1K for a good 4.5 or so years. But I also didn't have the income to justify a higher limit.
CONGRATS!!! i logged in this month and my 1500.00 limit had been increased to 3000.00. i was really surprised. the last increase i got from the love button took me from 1400.00 to 1500.00 big increase hunh. i don't ask for one and it gets doubled. how about that.
Thanks, everyone. Sounds like GE has been in a generous mood lately...
