      It's the message, not the messenger we are concerned with. Now if utilization is the 2nd biggest factor in credit scoring, what is the first biggest factor?

    I set a reminder to call my credit card company every 13 months and ask for a $5000 increase without a credit check. So far they have always said yes.

    IMO each Lender is slightly different about CLIs. This is what i've learned to do for each:
    Citibank: SP request every 6mths
    Discover: SP request 1x per 1-2 yrs
    Synchrony: SP request every 4 - 6mths
    Chase: spend heavy, pay off, update income every 6mths
    Capital 1: depends on which bucket you're in

    Personally, I am still in the accumulating phase in my credit card journey so for me to increase my credit score I have been relying on getting new cards to do so. It works really well if you are already getting new cards, but like you mentioned, it is not worth it to get a new card just for the credit limit increase. Great video Chase!

      You're on the right track. If you want more credit just get another card. Some issuers will do a hard pull, so you might as well get a card that will round out your portfolio.

    Nice topic and good to know. I normally don’t pay much attention to the credit limit since I am not a big spender and pay off my balance to avoid interest. Not sure if you have a video on explaining credit scores but it would also be a good topic to cover. How applying for credit cards affect credit scores, how certain loans (mortgage, student loans, personal loans) affect credit scores. Just sharing some ideas :)

    Amex is the exception to the CLI increase waiting game. You can 3x your limit on your first card after 61 days. Anything over 25k and they may review it. Make sure your income is correctly provided (Don't lie). Any CLI after that is 6 months

    • @ChaseYokoyama
      @ChaseYokoyama  2 года назад +4

      True they are pretty lenient with those 3x limit increases. Maybe I gotta make a dedicated video on them 😬 Thank you Jeff! 🤙🏽

    I just recently got a HUGE increase on my BofA cash rewards. I have to carry a balance for about 2 months on another card that has a promo 0% interest until next year, so that increase will keep my utilization low. besides that I pay all my other cards in full.. Aye Chase always great brodie 👊🏽💥

    • @ChaseYokoyama

    iv'e had my Chase Freedom Unlimited card for well over a year with a $500 limit. Iv'e used the crap out of it and always paid my balances off on time. They still haven't increased my limit. Should i just bite the bullet on the credit limit increase hard inquiry?

    • @ChaseYokoyama
      @ChaseYokoyama  Год назад

      Have you been maxing out the limit? Or are you keeping the utilization low? If its the latter, I would look into maybe applying for the Chase Freedom Flex (if it makes sense for you now) before requesting a limit increase.

  • @IkaikaArnado
    @IkaikaArnado Год назад +1

    Having a high credit means nothing. You wanna pay off your card before the bill drops anyway. Even if you miss the bill drop, you need to pay the card off in full always any way. Utilization doesn't have a long term impact if you pay your cards in full, which if you don't or can't do, you lost the points and miles game and shouldn't play it.
    You never need more credit than you have cash on hand.
