I called got a rep right away (really loving this back door number)
and I asked the guy whats up he said he was checking it out...
and
he told me since i had the annual fee waived he couldn't give me a cli he said basically what you said I should have asked for a CLI when I did it before, he told me to call back in 1-2 months I should be able to get it then..

I should call again this time the backdoor number?
Yes, I've never had any success with CLI's when I called regular CS. All of my CLI's came from the backdoor number.

Umm where would I get this?
Is there one online..?
and I might have shred it.. I don't know I do not remember seeing that
From what I understand, it would have been a letter sent to you. You can call them and ask if you are on credit steps. Usually with the type of Capital One card you said you had it should have been on it.

Did you call the backdoor number? If you did, call again.

Did you call them today? They don't check your reports, they look at your payment history. Did they state the reason why you were declined?

Call them and ask if your account is eligible for an increase. It doesn't hurt to ask.

It comes with the new card. Some has said it came after the card arrived. Regardless to if you seen in it or not, the cli automatically comes after the 4 statement cuts. That is only if you received the credit steps letter.

When you opened the account were you given the Credit Steps letter? I opened my Capital One nearly 11 years ago before credit steps and it took 15 months before I received a CLI. Stick with them, just give it some time.
