Re: Just wondering? Has anyone tried Over the limit or Maxing out to get CLIs?

That used to be a good way to get a cli. Of course, I didn't know anything about cli's. I maxed out my cards and, with interest, went over my limits many times.
 
I did it out of sheer stupidity.
 
As Al Bundy says - they have a lot of nerve expecting me to pay for stuff I bought 10 years ago.

It is too risky to try. I would not try it.

I was doing the maxing out and pif 2 to 3 times per month with my Amex & Hooters cards and it got me nowhere. I'm now trying it with WAMU.
