I only got a thousand dollar credit line (called for "reconsideration" since I got the "we'll get back to you in a week" message, and rep said he could approve me right away but only for one thousand, did I still want it?). I'm hoping Citi will allow me to shift some of my personal credit line WAYYYYY into 5 figures with them, to my business one so I can knock out my minimum spending faster and not worry about collecting my sign up bonus. anyone successful getting them to shift personal to business? My biz is 2 and a half years old, sole proprietor
Haven't had success moving credit at Citi from personal to biz, but have had success at obtaining a much larger credit line when opening a 2nd biz card 4 months later. Opened a biz AAdvantage Visa in Feb and got $3k limit. Opened a biz AAdvantage MC this June and got a $20k limit. Data points: sole prop, expected revenues ~$10k, length of time about 1 year.
