Re: Report Your "Credit limit Increases" Here!
Congrats! It wouldn't have mattered either way, because they do not put your limit or available credit on their statements, which is annoying sometimes. Pick up some Baby Phat jeans for me with all...

I don't know about that. I sure cannot tell, at least, not here in Georgia. I know that's what the politicians are saying though.:scared:
