I started with a 500 Savor. I never had 90 percent report on my statement. I always paid off my balance before the statement so it was always zero. Had the card over 5 months. I did this and got a 1000 increase. Tripled my credit line. Hope this helps anyone. Thanks for your help.
They give me a $2000 increase every 6 months without asking. I started with a secured card and always pay off my balance every month. I leave 1to3%just to show usage.
they see the "usage" when they send you the statement. they care about you paying it off in full before the reporting date, not holding a balance. credit utilization doesn't have a memory in your score. it'll change immediately once it reports.
So you only used your card 1%-3% all the time ? So this what I’m planning to do I was just now approved for a secured card I can loaded with $1000.00 should I use less than 30% of that and pay right away after using it ?
Only a got a $100 increase on QS, applied for new card, got a Venture with $3k, then asked for CI right away before getting the card in the mail and got another $300. Also applied before that a Savor for $2k.
Same happened to me. I have a quick silver with 500 limit. From June 24' through October 24' i put my cellphone and utility bill on it. I woke up last week to a 5k limit increase. This was an auto increased
I have the savor card I’ve been using it maxing it out and paying it off I started at 500 limit after about 6 weeks or so I was offered another 100 but I need more credit limit help please
A annoying point with capital one is when you add account users they don’t automatically increase the limit I have 3 people including myself of an 2k limit which is difficult to manage everything and I’ve even asked for increased and gotten denied due to the account being too new EDIT: They actually increased it I eat my own words
Capital one wants you to HEAVY use their card for 10 years for $100 increases is insane.
5 1/2 years and still no increase
@ wow thats crazy.....and other banks will give you increases every 6 months or so using the same credit report capital one use.
Thats ridiculous.
Instead of requesting limit increase let them increase for you so you will get good limit.

UNBELIEVABLE
Crazy edits lol 👍🏾
I don't understand this. Why would anybody want to spend $10k a month in charges unless they are rich?
Use the card like 10 to 14 times month for increases pay it down or off ,keep doing it every month 🎉🎉🎉
Just did all this nothing changed still declined been at 400 for years

Same, my oldest is still at 651 for 5 and a half years. The card has even been upgraded to the quick silver and still no increase.
So in order to get a credit limit increase they want us to ruin our credit score for them??

Reddit and myfico
Too be honest I haven’t had an issue with them compare to Goldman Sachs
That sound is quite distracting/annoying
