We keep hitting the monkey button because people keep starting "why do I hit the monkey button" threads on myfico. This causes those of us who had finally stopped to think, "I wonder if anything has changed?" It hasn't, but we hit it every day for a week before we realize this. By then, someone has posted another "why do i hit the monkey button" thread and the cycle repeats. These threads have become the meta-monkey button. Even if we can all agree to stop posting such threads, within a week someone will post about getting PCd from a secured card to Venture Gold despite a fico of 455 and multiple felony fraud convictions and the cycle will restart.


I'm starting to think about getting a CapOne card so I can hit the monkey button too. Smiley Sad


Your not missing anything.................................

Hello my fellow Pavlovians. This according to a señor representative @ Capone.
First of all he wants to welcome you to the family.
Secondly, you see there's some rules.
Some cards are not eligible for user initiated CLI.
If you have one then your limit needs to be above $2500.
If below, neither the system of they can help.
Secondly, if you have an AF, you're most likely out of luck.
Third and foremost. The system can be overridden only if the CL is sufficient and the account is open long enough.
Each time you hit the monkey button for your $500 af "platinum" no benefit card an Indian rep gets tickled
and a cat dies. At least that's the cover story. Thanks for your understanding and it was a pleasure doing business.
In other words fuggedaboutit.
Remember we're not bankers, we deal in olive oil.

Ha, I thought this thread was hilarious because I saw it about 5 minutes after hitting the monkey button yet again.  I just can't wait until I get my 3rd prime card so I can finally ditch my Cap One Platinum.  I don't think they will ever give me a CLI or a PC, and even asking for a CLI is like 3 hard pulls isn't it?

I'm sure I will hit it again tomorrow.

 

Maybe that will be the day!

 

NOT.
