Gap Card CLI!!!
Hello, I received my Gap card in October of 2009 with a $250 limit. From reading the posts here, I knew that it took 4 months to get a CLI. So in February I clicked the luv button...DENIED!! I tried again in March....denied AGAIN!! I received letters stating that I needed to establish 4-month payment history. I was so frustatred because zI was past the 4-month mark both times I tried for the CLI. BUT..today just on a whim, I clicked the luv button...APPROVED!! CL went from $250 to $450!! Not much, but I'll take it!!!! Not sure if it was a hard pull or not, but I think that it was soft. I checked my TU reports after both of the previous tries, and there was not an inquiry on my report. Yaaaaaaay Me!!!!!!!!!!

How does one pay cc bal in full each month to prevent it from showing up on credit report?
I just received a new cc card(unsecured) from my bank. I opened this new account because I want to raise my credit score and because I had no revolving credit. Anyway, after reading many of the posts here I'm hearing a lot about paying off full bal each month. So, my question is when should I make the payments; a few days before the statement comes out (which I do not know when), or soon after I receive the statement??? Help me out here.
