Sorry if I have missed this elsewhere. I have a tiny credit limit on this card and was wondering ai anyone had experience of paying the card more frequently than monthly and churning the credit limit, while still eating points? Atm the max I can earn is 3000 avios a month!
Thanks in advance.
From my experience, there doesn’t seem to be any limit to the number of payments I make per month. I regularly spend more than my credit limit by paying off as I go.
They gave me a £20k limit…yikes… double what I have anywhere else
Maybe because I have a Barclays Premier account
I had a low limit and just paid every time i would get near it (a good few times a month) no issues at all.
Momthly, sometimes i have spent 8x my limit whilst earning points. Also just doubled my limit by asking for an increase, i think my spending helped with that
Thanks for everyone’s responses. I’ll churn away at the limit then. It is frustrating only having 5% of the limit in comparison to other cards I hold.
