    I have had a classic Chase card for 11 months and they still have not raised my limit. Do I have to call, and if I do will they do a hard inquiry? Any info would be appreciated.

    I've had my acct for just over a year. They keep sending me BT checks, so I called them last week to see if I was eligible for an increase. The guy asked me to verify my address and info, then asked me to hold on for a minute. Next thing I know, I was declined for an increase because of 'too many balances on my accounts', they pulled Experian, and did I want their phone number so I can request a copy of my credit report.

    My limit is still at $4K.

    oh yeah, my son is not happy with me - I usually call him Pooh Bear, but now it's Poobybear. He's 13!!

    Thanks for the info, I figured that they would do a credit check first.
    I'm glad that you like the nickname!!! - you will find yourself calling your son that in public one day, people do it to me all the time!

    ASK FIRST...NO INQUIRY INCREASE...

    DISCOVERCARD $0

    FIRST USA $5,000 no inquiry...but they did an inquiry one month later when I did a balance transfer...(HOW STUPID AND ILLOGICAL)...

    Hi,

    I have Chase Gold card for 7 months. Called Chase and asking for credit line increase. They told me that they will have to pull credit report. I said no and I sent the letter thru PFB to :

    William Harrison Jr., CEO
    Chase Manhattan Bank
    270 Park Avenue, Floor 12
    New York, NY 10017-2014

    Got a call from Excutive Office. Still no increase. They said the account will be reviewed periodly.
