Should I ask or wait for a cli with Amazon store card?

[ShiningDown]

 Should  I request a cli after 4 payments from Amazon. I have read that people have had luck after 4 payments. My husband has a card and wants to know what the best  option would be, to wait for auto increase or ask for one. If he asks for a cli will it be a hard pull ? How often can you get a increase ?

It is typically a SP, accounts generally become eligible every four statement periods until/if reach a maximum exposure across all GE accounts...would go ahead and ask after the fourth statement cuts, unless wants to wait (an indefinite time period) for an auto increase.

I think they are automatic every 3-4 months.

Here is my scenario; Opened account at end of Sept. this year.  Requested an increase the week before Black Friday and was denied (no hard pull). 

Noticed I had received an increase of $300 after/when my third statement posted in Dec.

Hope this helps

CLI are not typically auto every 3-4 months with GECRB, YMMV.

Request every 4 months via website CLI button. Soft pull.

I opened my Amazon account on 8/25/11 and tried for a CLI online and was instantly denied so I'm not sure if it as after 4 months from account opening or 6 months.  When I opened my Gap VISA account I had the same experience but since then my limit has more than doubled....and I hardly use it

I have noticed since GEMB became GEMCB Or whatever they're called, they've became more stingy with CLI'S!!! I used to be able to hit the luv button everyb4 months and would get it. Now I've been getting declined more and nothing's changed!!

I would try every 4 months. YMMV. Make sure your recent INQ's are low and not alot ofnex accts.

He only has 1 installment loan from  7/ 2007  and still paying on.   1 capitalone less than a year old and the Amazon store card 4 or 5 months old.

 I guess the site was closed when we tried to get a cli but it may be open now IM not sure.
