Sams Club Question

Do you think it would be possible for me to get a CLI on my Sams since I've only had it for about 2 months?  There is a furniture items I am in need of and they have the best price.   I originally called when I got it for a CLI and they said no and sent a letter saying wait until you've had your current limit atleast one month.  I don't know if I should attempt it or not?

Total CL: $40k+

Re: Sams Club Question

I considered that but it would exceed my CL's between both and my util would skyrocket for a few months.  Definitely something to consider more though

Call be nice

Explain the situation just like you did hear ....perfect piece great price 

Ask for CLI so that your card isn't max'ed out and affecting your credit because you don't like to do that (responsible)

$2k increase

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?
