No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Since you are the primary for the card you assume all responsibility for it so his credit is not even taken into consideration when processing CLI requests on your AMEX. They must've taken your credit score and their own internal risk score when evaluating the increase you received. So congrats on that that was all you.
Stop crying, Barb - that CLI was all you!!!
Way to go!!!
Feels awsome doesn't it?
