I get approved for a credit limit of a MEASLY $2,000. I have Starwood Card with credit limit of $35,000 (and have often reached this paying balance if full) . I have high FICO, AmEx customer for 18 years, never a late payment, good income, always pay balance in full. $2,000. is an insult and NOT going to cut it. They told me to request increase again in 60 days !!
This is nothing new, It has been discussed in Amex Forum for awhile:
