PC from Arrival to Arrival +

[Anonymous]

Just got approved for the Arrival last month. I should have gone for the + but I didn't. Does Barclay require a certain amount of time to have the card to do a PC, if they would even upgrade it. I got approved for 10k CL so I would assume that I would have got the + had I app'd for that one instead.

Thanks for any info you can provide!

Edit: To clarify

I think its a year, but you can always call and ask I suppose. I think you'd be better off waiting a while and then applying for it so you can get the sign up bonus.

I just found a thread that seems like it may be a year...but I should wait and get the bonue miles with a new app. Is there a time that Barclay's likes to see inbetween apps?

I would give it at least 6 months, depending on if you have other new accounts. They really like to see a positive relationship with them before offering more credit.

Everything I have read is they want at least 6 months between apps.  I waited almost exactly 6 months between the SM and Arrival+.  I was instantly approved, but my CL is lower on the Arriaval+ than the SM.   The CL is plenty high enough for my spend, but I should have waited longer if I was looking for a bigger CL.

Do they move around credit lines? I know Chase is pretty good with doing that.

Yes, they do. When I applied for my ring card they gave me 3k on it, and the UW said if I needed more she could happily move some of my arrival line onto my ring card.

I thought the law said a year no matter who the lender was?
