    I checked my on-line statement and I found out they increased my Quantum Mastercard limit again. They increased the limit of the card from $17,700 to $18,600 without asking.

    UYGF

    I have NOT been able to get what may other people have got...LIMIT INCREASES...CREDIT CARDS...INTEREST RATES...PROMO BT'S...ETC.

    Even though I have (or had) way higher F.I.C.O., way longer credit history, way higher income, ETC. ETC. ETC.

    UYGF=UNLESS YOUR GEORGE FACTOR

    Maybe he would be willing to trade with you George. Your 31k for his 18k.

    Ron, do you find that quantum always give you the same amount of an increase or do they usually vary?

    I've usually gotten the same amt of increase, just at different intervals.

    THEY ADVERTISE "UP-TO" $250,000!!!

    I was NOT asking for $250,000...I didn't even want $100,000...I was asking for $32,000 or $35,000...isn't that fair with 24+ years of PERFECT CREDIT??? And about 10 years with MBNA???

    George: You should separate the limit into two cards, then call and ask for a cr increase for each one and then join both again.

    Is Quantum a tough card to get? I have First USA Signature Card and use it most of the time. Is Quantum a similar card to visa Signature? Any extra benefits? How about MBNA's World Master Card?

    My creidt score are: FICO is 752 and Experian is 783. Do I quaify for Quantum with a $200K/year household income and 0 delinquencies? I tried to get Amex Platinum and they rejected me because I had a delinquent account with them 10 years ago! I suppose they don't care for a perfect credit report at this time. Which other cards are the best to have in terms of rewards and conveniences? Thanks.

    I don't know it is tough for you. They denied me because my income didn't qualify for the card. Thye offered me to convert my Garfield Platinum Plus Mastercard into Quantum Card. That was two years ago. I knew they took longer to process Quantum Card than others. I haven't tried to apply for World Mastercard.

    luxury4me,

    Sometimes they give you more for the increase and they usually increase every 3 to 4 months. By the way, they increased more than my Elite Rewards Platinum Plus Visa. 500 increase for Elite Rewards and ? for Quantum Mastercard.

    I recently got a unsolicited $500 increase from MBNA as well. I've had the account for about 4 months and I'm using a promotional balance transfer offer. I was quite surprised to see the increase. I hope they keep coming!

    MBNA's Quantum Redefines the Credit Card for the Affluent Consumer



    WILMINGTON, Del., June 15 /PRNewswire/ -- MBNA America announced today the
    introduction of Quantum, the exclusive credit card for those who demand the
    ultimate in features and services.
    For almost 20 years, MBNA has led the field in the introduction of
    products to meet the needs of the affluent Customer. In 1983, MBNA pioneered
    the Gold MasterCard, and quickly attained the distinction of being the first
    to issue one million of the prestigious cards. Then, in 1996, MBNA launched
    the Platinum Plus card. With its $100,000 credit line and array of benefits,
    Platinum Plus soon became the much imitated industry standard.
    Designed to appeal to the most discriminating person, and not available to
    the general public, the translucent Quantum surpasses both gold and platinum
    level cards. Quantum offers the ultimate in lines of credit, distinctive
    travel benefits, state-of-the-art Internet applications, security and Customer
    satisfaction.
    Quantum Customers who qualify can access lines of credit totaling
    $1 million. The first $250,000 of the Quantum account is completely available
    by card, check, or cash. Beyond that a check-accessed line of credit can be
    arranged for an additional $750,000. So, even if the private seller of a rare
    collectible doesn't accept credit cards, the Quantum Customer can simply write
    an access check.
    But that's only the beginning of what sets Quantum apart from other
    premium bank cards. All Quantum Customers will enjoy Quantum Assist(SM), an
    exclusive concierge service that puts a personal assistant at the Customer's
    disposal to arrange anything from dinner reservations to finding that perfect
    gift. An optional Quantum Rewards(SM) program allows the Customer to earn up
    to 1 million miles per year, good for unlimited worldwide redemptions. So the
    Quantum Customer with sufficient miles can redeem points to fly first class to
    Sydney for a meeting, stay at a favorite 5-star hotel, take a luxury cruise
    around the South Pacific, and then fly home with a 2-day stop-over in Hawaii.
    All the Customer needs to do is make one phone call to Quantum Travel
    Services(SM). And the list of Quantum travel benefits goes on and on:
    -- Exclusive travel packages at the best resorts and destinations around
    the world and complimentary upgrades
    -- Personal travel planners to assist with complex itineraries
    -- Free Trip Cancellation and Trip Interruption Insurance
    Quantum is also fully "Internet ready". Protected by the highest level of
    security available, Customers have convenient and easy-to-use online access to
    their accounts, and are 100% protected against any unauthorized use. In
    addition, Quantum Customers receive:
    -- An optional electronic wallet that adds extra speed and convenience to
    online transactions in a secure encrypted environment
    -- Full Internet access to concierge and travel services
    -- Internet shopping tools
    MBNA's award winning Customer satisfaction commitment completes the
    package. The Quantum Customer can speak to a Personal Representative 24 hours
    a day, 7 days a week, receiving Quantum Priority Service. A special Merchant
    Dispute Advocacy service goes above and beyond to help resolve disputes with
    merchants. Quantum, the ultimate credit card, is designed to surpass the most
    demanding Customer's expectations.
    Pricing for Quantum varies, but the account typically features a 2.9%
    introductory rate and a fixed 13.99% rate thereafter. There is no annual fee,
    but the optional Quantum Rewards(SM) program costs $75 per year. There are no
    over-the-credit-limit-fees and no ATM transaction fees. Quantum Customers
    also enjoy preferred rates on MBNA Certificates of Deposit and Money Market
    Accounts, already among the best rates available nationally.
    MBNA America, the pioneer in gold and platinum bank cards, now is
    introducing the ultimate: Quantum. With exclusive features to meet the needs
    of those who qualify, Quantum truly is only for the select few, and only from
    MBNA.

    luxury4me,

    My Quantum Card is 9.9% fixed for purchases,cash advances, balance transfer. Current promotional BT is 4.7% until July. I think you an request to lower your APR into 9.9% fixed after a year.
