Amex Gives a $100 Auto-CLI?

[CrapOneSux]

Hi everybody,

 

I made a healthy online payment on my Amex this month (as usual) and once the payment was submitted I went back to my account summary and it showed my available credit went up by $100 more than the amount of my payment. Pretty odd, I've never seen that happen before. I tried searching on here to see if it'd been mentioned recently but didn't find anything. It'd be interesting to hear if anyone else has experience with this type of thing.

 

ETA: I also have no outstanding charges, refunds or anything else that would cause this.

It's a glitch in their system. Give it a few days and your available credit will go back to what your credit limit actually is.

Yeah, its just their goofy system... on the other hand, the time it showed up as $2000 more than my payment it really was a CLI. I still waited 5 days and checked again before i believed it.
