Just wanted to thank everyone for their responses. smile.gifI recommended to her that she should ask for a CLI upon activation.I wonder if income perhaps has an impact into an initial credit line. Iknow it does when they determine the maximum exposure the c.c will allowfor a customer, but for the opening CL I have to guess that income plays apart even then.

My score was only 650 ish and I got a 5000 opening limit on my Starwood inmarch. That one is now over 16000. I just got Delta Gold(with EQ of 674)which I converted to Blue last night.

why does Amex keep tempting me with the blue cash? I just got One and Delta(2.5K) starting. I think I'm going to pay off "one" and close it. They gaveme a little love the night I activated the card.Amex just keeps on with the blue cash "apply" button on the top of my othertwo accounts. it's like the beacon...i have to resist but dang I want toapply!!!
