If you feel you deserve a higher limit, give them a call and see if an underwriter can increase it for you. They will tend to check your credit file which does show as a search and from that can see what your commitment levels are.0

I would give it six months.
Make sure you meet the minimum payments (as a minimum) on time.0 -
as they say walk before you run, if your new I would give it 12 months been honest0
