DO NOT play around with the spending power tool. That’s one way to get a financial review.
Capital One is notorious for bucketing. When I started rebuilding back in 2017, I got a QS1 and a Platinum I upgraded to a QS. The QS1 slowly increased for the first two years but now it's stuck. The QS I've only received two increases with that last one for a whopping $250.
I’m 21 Amex everyday is at 20k BOA at $5700 Apple Card 7250 Capital one 600
Discover Card will give high credit limits gradually as mine started $2500 1st yr, $3600 2nd yr, $4400 3rd yr and now currently $9000. Last December after gardening for 2yrs, I applied for my first Amex card BCE and straight up giving me $6000. Then got Chase Flex $4500. As you said Adam these companies pretty much give out good credit limits starting out.

Just want to thank you for all the effort that you put into your content, it’s been a big help to me and many others! I’ve been anti credit cards until recently because of life changes and realized how much they can play an intricate part in saving you money with a better credit score. It would be nice to see a video on how having multiple cards with a balance paid in full every month but still show a balance on your credit report can help improve your credit score by increasing your payment history/percentage. Could be a false premise on my part but do believe it has helped increase my payment history.

I don't have a single card under $10k limit. I work hard to make sure any new cards get used pretty exclusively for the first 90 days to get any welcome bonus but show the issuer Im reliable and can use high limits and pay back. Then request an increase between 60-90 days of opening. Amex I asked 2.5x what I started with and I've been approved twice now for 2.5x what I started. Love my delta card. My apple card I didn't get to select the increase they just gave me what they thought was appropriate. which Im fine with. My Amex cards are pretty much all I use now though. Delta Platinum & Business Gold Card.

@@swatkins67 guess you had cards before going to capital one cuz capital is really nice if they think your there number 1 card and spend good on it but mainly for people who start credit going to capital one after 700+ is just retarded there better company's 🤣 you don't need a big limit on a starter company capital one likes there money there no stingy just don't trust you there a big difference
Hate my Capital One cards. I have 2 cards with them, quicksilver for 4 years is only $1200 and walmart is 2k. I ask for increases but they deny. Mid 700's credit score with no derogatory items. I pay my cards in full and never carry a balance. I have opened an account with Navy Federal and plan to get the secured card and secured savings loan to build a relationship then hopefully they will approve me for something decent, 15k would be nice.

I got my first chase card approval a couple weeks ago and I only have about a year of credit history but chase gave me a 3100 dollar credit limit for the Disney Visa rewards card which is higher than I expected. That savings account I have with chase I bet played a role in that. Can't wait to start using the card and building up those rewards

I recently jumped on the Capital One it being the first card I figured I'd go with a company thats pretty lenient they gave me 10k to start my credit card lifestyle. I've got 2 loans (paid in full) and a line of credit that I've had for over 6 years. It may have been possible to get something else, but doing a bit of research and being what feels like hard stuck since I'm a gm of a fast food chain I figured if my bills can be paid by this I will be able to redeem cashback to feel like im not in between a rock and a hard place.

Have to agree, CapOne has been very stingy 1/3 of the average. Citibank has been the most generous with limits even before i opened a checking with them. i refuse to pay an annual fee so wouldn't know about AMEX.

At 53 years old, I finally decided to get some credit cards for the sole reason of getting my credit score as high as possible. I have started out with Capital One Savor and Chase Prime Visa and pay them off when my balance gets to 15% of available credit(or every month, whichever comes first). I want to add one or two more cards to get my credit limit up. Here's my question- Should I take a certain amount of time to build a good history with these first two cards BEFORE applying for additional cards? Would waiting give me a better chance at getting a higher limit on any additional cards? Would jumping the gun result in me being stuck at lower limits for a longer period? Great content, by the way.
Alrighty then. I'm a vet, so I had zero probs setting up an account with NFCU. I'll give it a few months and then apply for a CC and see what gives. Thanks!!

Amex has been the most generous for me, while Bank of America has been the most stingy. Even though my accounts with Amex are newer than my accounts with Bank of America plus having a checking and savings account with them, they've yet to give me an automatic increase and only gave me half of the increase I requested the one time I have requested an increase lol.
Definitely agree with what you're saying with Discover. Capital One was my first issuer and despite a perfect payment history and never carrying a balance, they still outright refuse to increase my credit limits on either of the cards I hold. Got approved for a chase card and they only gave me 2.5k. Applied for the discover it a few weeks later and they surprised me with 8k. I will also say Capital One is ran by robots, the CS agents have no say in anything. Getting a product change or a credit line increase is like pulling teeth with them. If the algorithm doesn't like you then you're SOL. Hope my experience with discover will be better. Maybe it's just that I'm bitter about my past experience with C1 over the past three or so years but Discover actually giving me a card that aligns with my credit history left a good first impression for sure.
Thanks for the video!
