Dam credit cards!
 
I just got my renewed VISA card and somehow my credit limit has made it up to $22,800! :shock: And I hardly ever use that credit card.

I would end up owing my first born child to someone if they gave me a credit card with a limit that high.....

Another neat trick is when they put a negative balance on an inactive card to get you to use it. I just cash it out at work.

You can ask the credit card company to lower your credit limit. Too much available credit actually lowers your credit score. Ask me how I know (trying to buy a house) :(

American Express Gold Card - no limit.

When you absolutely, positively must have it... whip out the Amex.

When in doubt, I'll whip it out. I got me in a rock'n'roll band

Werd.

Nobody will beat up a shady retailer quite like Amex. That is, if the retailer even takes it to begin with :shock:

You would be surprised to see what Mastercard can offer you as well. I have one of their top cards and it competes quite well with Amex. Besides no annual fees either! :)

My Amex Platinum kicks your Mastercard's ass.
