in Credit cards
I have the base 200 limit since I only just got my barclay card and a new current account in the same few months.
My question is if I pay on 100ish quid and clear it each month what increase can I expect and statement 3?
Same with my barclay card intial and 6 months?

Mines went from £200 to £500 in a matter of a couple of months.
How long till it goes higher I wonder.When dealing with the CSA its important to note that it is commonly accepted as unfit for purpose, and by default this also means the staff are unfit for purpose.0 -

Thanks for that. Im not really that fussed, I clearly it most but not all months, atleast it looks good on my credit report all these on time payments lolWhen dealing with the CSA its important to note that it is commonly accepted as unfit for purpose, and by default this also means the staff are unfit for purpose.0 -
Well after 6 month will probably go for another card. Thought they went to 2000 on a classic card.
People like my friend are probably the reason they lock it at £500 for sub prime customers because they kept my mates going up 3 years ago and he default @ 1500 and could not manage it anymore.
Anyone know what barclay card intial is like I have started with 400 and I doing 200 od a month and clearing in full.0 -

I think Capital One do periodic reviews, i had mine increased to £1,100 after £500 initial credit limit (after 4 months) and then another increase of £1,000 to £2,100! Classic have a max credit limit of £2,500.0
