What was you first 2k+ limit card?

[Themanwhocan]

I got a $1000 secured card from US Bank Jan 2012, in Jan 2013 I asked for a Platinum card, and was granted $8,500.

2.5 month later I asked for another US Bank card and was granted $6,500. I have since PC'd them both into Cash+ cards

US Bank used Equifax both times. I did try for a CLI in July which was denied (I think the second card application counted as getting more credit, so I wasn't eligible for even more credit via a CLI) and the CLI attempt pulled TU. YMMV.

Actually to be more precise, the CLI attempt was denied with no HP and a explanation I didn't understand, so I called and the CSR didn't understand either, so we put in a request for review with a HP. And then it was denied the second time... Still, 15K total credit from US Bank plus 2 PC's to Cash+ all in the first half of 2013, hey I have no complaints here AT ALL....

My first was back in 1983 with Citi Choice card. Starting CL was 2.5k, and Bank of New York starting CL 4.1k.  I can't believe i still remember all that!

My USAA MC jumped from $1,500 to $3,000 a few years back - first card to ever break $2,000. I was ecstatic and yet didn't go on a shopping spree at the same time (goodness)  Then during the 2008 economic downturn, they slashed my limit back down to $1,500.

One of my first 'real' cards. I got approved for 1.5K and I love it, but I fear my other cards will get neglected.

9 months my BofA 99/500 graduated to a 5k cash rewards then the month after I applied and was approved for BofA travel rewards 2.6k, Amex Gold Skymiles 2.5k and Amex Green NPSL. I feel I'm in a great position 11 months into my credit journey!
