Just got an email randomly from Amex stating they've imposed a credit limit of $12.2k on my personal platinum
For context I've put through a few very large transactions through the personal, one was for business two months ago while waiting for the business platinum card ($25k) and the rest have been for personal (home reno's totalling $60k)
I have $30k balance on business and $11k on personal, both not due for payment until mid September
With the business card, because it's new I've been debiting with cash before processing transactions for the most part...
Why has this happened and what options do I have to work through this credit limit with amex?
$12.2k is a PITA, would mean constantly debiting the card over the next few months as we do more home reno's
Edit: calling them tomorrow but will be helpful to arm myself ahead of that if others have successfully negotiated through this...
