Which %0 intro APR credit cards, personal or business, are the easiest to get approved high credit limits? My score is 740+
Score isn't nearly as important as reported income and existing credit limits when it comes to determining credit lines.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Thanks, but is there any cards that rather approve higher lines then others?

I edited the wiki. I fixed the link on the United Explorer card (the old link didn't work) to point to a new bonus level. 30+5k +$100.

hope this is the right thread...trying to decide whether to apply for the new sapphire reserve for 100k bonus or 2 southwest cards to go for the companion pass.  Son is going to yeshiva in new york, sw is an excellent option for us, probably could get a few uses out of the companion pass - but not sure worth locking in the miles to sw.  I have chase ink and saphire to earn ur already....  any thoughts?  Thanks in advance!
