Lowes question

I was just approved for lowes this morning and I am trying to find out when is the best time to ask for a higher limit. Should I wait until I recieve the card or can I try now? What is the best way to try, call or chat?

If your credit score supports it, NOW. I was approved for 1500 online, I called their credit solutions number and asked for 10k and got it the same day. Best of luck!

@Have you called yet? Smiley Happy As others have said, NOW! I got approved and within 5 minutes of getting my 1k line, I called credit solutions and received a CLI up to 12k! I made a $10 purchase, paid it off, called back and was bumped to 17k. Good luck! (TU score 694 @ that time)

 

Edit: Just saw the last post was from you! my bad Smiley Happy CONGRATS!

Re: Lowes question

I am tempted to call credit solutions and ask for a bump for 8k to 25k but I am actually a little afraid these days of HUGe credit limits on my CR's.
