    What was the most he has ever increased you CL and how long did you have to wait after he did an increase to ask for the next one?

    I heard that $1000 is usually all you get. Has anyone gotten more with one call or has it taken several months?

    Thanks,
    Kim

    Yes Kim it is $1000 (at least for the classic card). I was working with Mr. Miller (pre Mr. Cooke) and I was granted $1300 increase...but he HAD to do it $1000 now and $300 next month because of the limitation on increases.

    Once you get an increase, I would call back for an APR increase in about 2 or 3 billing cycles...then call for another CL increase after another 2 or 3 cycles and alternate between APR decreases and CL increases. They will tell you to call back in about 6 months for another increase but you can push the envelope so to speak. It all depends on your payment history and card use.

    -Peace, Dave
