Aqua credit card limit increase online

Mishomeister

Just applied for limit increase on the Aqua website for my Reward card.
Hence the limit I have asked for is quiet high(£1,500) I was wondering if anyone has any experience applying for a limit increase with Aqua online and was wondering if they think I am asking to much is it in anyway possible the could offer me a lower increase or will just decline it, possibly not because they could not increase my limit by any amount at all but because that is how their system works.

I was also wandering if anyone could possibly tell me how long should I expect to hear from them?

Thank you very much

I applied for an increase about 6 months after having the card limit: £250, asked for: £600, got an e-mail back saying they couldn't do that, but would increase it to £350. So I expect if they can increase it to an amount lower than your request, they will. They took about 2 working days to reply.

I applied again 4 months after this (it's not obvious whether the account review period is 4 or 6 months), but didn't get any reply.

I think its about three months with each review

mine was increased feb then again may. its a good credit card but i'm not using as much since i've reached the 100 cashback. i was told by aqua CS that the cashback is calculated on my june statement and payed out in the july statement. obviously this will differ for each person.

In June I would have had my card for 12 months and not a single increase

Ah well, no problems, I just made more than one payment a month. If the cash back stops, I'll stop using the card as its the only incentive. The minimum limit between the other 3 cards is £5K. I'll never use that amount, but I don't have to worry about paying it more than once a month with a high limit such as that.

I've had my aqua card since July last year and although I haven't asked for an increase, I was automatically increased to £600 from £250 after three/four months and then last month upto £1000. I pay off my credit card in full each month, spending around £1/200 a month.

I remember in the opening documentation it did say you could request one after 6 months. I think it depends a lot on how you manage your account to be honest.
