Looking for a high credit limit card

in Credit cards
Hello all,
I have a fairly good credit score (somewhere in the 700's) and am looking for a card with a high limit. The highest limit I currently have is 9k on one of my cards. I have a few other cards with limits of 5k, 1k and 4k. I need a card with ZERO interest for 12 mos and a credit limit of 8-10k right now. Does anyone know of a card company that typically offers generous CL's? Thanks :A

A number of banks will tell you the expected credit limit, as part of their eligibility check (soft search). This is a relatively recent development. But a number of MSE members have reported this on a number of threads...

No one knows until you apply.
Also your score is irrelevant when lenders make their decisions.
It boils down to affordability, current limits, repayment histories etc.0 -

Mbna, Lloyds, Halifax, BOS and Nationwide will tell you an estimated limit.0

Barclaycard and MBNA have traditionally had high limits. I also got a good limit from Virgin.0

Your score is just a number.
I have poor credit, recently had a CCJ clear 2 years ago, I was accepted with BC with a limit of 6k I’d suggest they probably have the higher lending along with virgin.0
