Barclaycard credit limit increase

I received an automatic credit limit increase in September. I'd like to increase it further but according to the website you can't apply for an increase if you have asked for one in the last six months, so my question is this - am i eligible for an increase now (as i never asked for the last one) or will i have to wait 6 months from the date of the auto increase? Thanks.

    A couple of weeks ago I received a letter as an existing customer offering me 0% on BTs to Feb 2012 and it also said that I could increase my limit by a further £7,900 if I wished. I’ve been able to do the BT OK, but through the website it won’t allow me to increase my limit.

    I received an automatic limit uplift last September from £6k to £9k so I assumed that they weren’t giving me the additional uplift due to the six month rule.

    Really doesn’t make any difference to me as a 12 month 0% deal for an existing customer is fantastic, but yes, I found that promises in the letter and actions through the website didn’t match up.
