    Youve had it 3 months ?

    they 'may' up the limit in your 5th month if you have been managing it well.

    I doubt they would agree to a request before youve had the card for at least 6 months.

    Might be a good idea to use it to buy a dictionary :)

    The personal jibes (in both directions) will stop now or this thread will be closed.

    You can always ask, the worst they can do is say no, if they do then ask when they will increase your limit (I suspect 5 or 6 months will be the minimum).
