I'm with you on this, AMEX has been my favorite so far. I got my Blue Cash in 12/06 also and started with a 6K CL. As of yesterday they increased my CL a 2nd time and it's now at 16K. I wish I saw your thread before I spoke with the CSR yesterday because when she asked if there was anything else she could help me with I'd have asked her to lower my APR!

Hey, what is your average spending on this card, and what is your score?

It was the first card I got when I started rebuilding in December. I've run about 8-9K through it since then. Made 2 purchases of about 3.4K but paid them both off after 2 statements.

My score when I got the card was a 757 on EQ - I was disputing the worst thing on my CR and EQ removed it while in dispute so my score shot up - came right back on and my score tumbled back down to about 660. They seem to only be doing ARs on EX where my score is 667 as of 7/19. At this point if I can figure a way to get that last baddie off I know my FICOs would all be pushing 800.

Me too!   Amex rocks!

Edited to add:  I got my haircut yesterday and was telling my hairdresser about how I was thinking of moving and buying a new house but I wanted to wait for about a year to get my credit report in better shape to buy etc.   Well, when I paid I used my Amex Blue Cash and she looked at it and said "Well you must have great credit if you have an Amex Blue."   It made me proud!  I worked hard to get where I am now!

That's cool. If they increased your limit twice in less than a year, hopefully they'll do the same for me. I'm a big time spender so I'll just stop clicking the luv button. hahahaha.

I just got a CLI on my AMEX Blue for Students and the guy said over the phone you could request one every six mos- but of course that doesn't mean you'll get it- all depends on review and scores. hehehe.

I know people who have requested a cli once a month and get it every time.
