HSBC Credit Limit Enhancement Offer

Tylerdurden

Currently I hold HSBC Cashback card with a limit of Rs.1 lakh. I am now offered a limit of Rs.1.6 lakhs by HSBC. Should I accept it or wait for a better CLE
Please provide your guidance on this.
Thanks in advance.
 
You should definitely accept credit LE offer, as it will help you in keeping your overall credit utilization low. I have also received limit enhancement from 1.8 lacs to 11.8 lacs on my HSBC card couple of weeks back, even though I hardly use this card. Remember - Once you accept the LE offer, it usually takes upto 2 weeks to update the limit by HSBC.
 
I saw this pop up of limit increase on my Home Screen. Upon accepting, it’s still showing my older limit under transactions tab. How much time does it take for the new limit to reflect in the app?

I also got that pop up today. I didn't even check the increased limit just accepted it straight away. Is it reflecting in your app now?
 
I also got a limit increase offer to 7,33,000 and I accepted that, I have screenshot of conv with support agent also. Post the new statement my limit was decreased to 1,04,000 from 3,18,000. What type of limit enhancement is this? Are they allowed to do this? Offer a credit limit increase, take consent and then reduce the limit?

Same for me. Earlier I had 6L and opted to increase 9L. But it got decreased to 1.42L. Today morning, contacted customer care. They said it's technical issue in their side and asked me to wait for 72 hours to restore old limit. Let's see
