No Credit card increase help

<p>I've been with Standard bank for long now, this will be the first time that i actually really want help with from them.</p> <p>im going overseas and need to increase my credit card limit so that i can show available funds when i do my Visa.</p> <p>so i went into the bank and they put me on the phoned with the call centre.</p> <p>It took the call centre 20 min for someone to actually answer.</p> <p>then they asked me a few security questions, and asked me what increase i want to apply for.</p> <p>I asked them for a certain amount, they checked and said i dont quaify for it.</p> <p>I understand that part, but then I asked them ok so what do i qualify for?</p> <p>They cant even tell me what i can apply for!! So you thumbsuck an amount and dont even know IF you can apply for it and you can only apply for an increase again in 6 months!</p> <p> WHY DO I GET SMSES SAYING I CAN GET A LIMIT INCREASE ON MY CREDIT CARD BUT NO ONE CAN ACTUALLY SAY WHAT AMOUNT, so now i say R10000 (cause I dont know what i can get) and they turn it down cause its too high.</p> <p>NOW I HAVE TO WAIT 6 MONTHS JUST SO I CAN GUESS AGAIN WHAT I CAN APPLY FOR!!</p> <p>a Bank should be able to tell you what increase you can get and then give it to you!!</p> <p> </p> <p>**** bank! I wanted to open a 32day deposit account because im getting money in that i dont want to use, butt ill rather take my money to a different bank and close my account with Standard bank!!</p>
