At any rate, I have a $10k CL on the free card and only a $5k limit on the Venture. All my other cards from other issuers have at least $20k limits. I've tried numerous times to request increases on the Venture to no avail. Since I never use the free card for purchases, I want to transfer as much of the CL over to the Venture as possible. I tried calling CS and got a firm no.
Has anyone had success with this? Any tips?
You can request an increase. I just did it and got $5k increase, with no hit on my credit. Log into your account goto Services>More>Request Credit Line Increase
enter your salary info and they'll increase you automatically. I believe your account should be in good standing though.
