They say that I am trying to request too much (New Credit) too soon after my last Purchase only 1 month ago. i was really hoping that i was going to be able to buy the IPad Air Yesterday.

Maybe they are just trying to give you sound advice?

Perhaps iPhone price = 90% of Credit Card Limit? :)

Actually, it was 67% of my Credit Card Limit, but that was because I upgraded before I was Eligible for a New 2 Year Contract. I had just bought an IPhone 5 on December 24th of last year and won't be Eligible for my IPhone 6 until August of 2014! :-)

Second that! Spending money one has not even earned yet is not such a good idea. I know it sucks when you have to save up first and wait for things you would rather have now, but in the long run, it is the better choice.

Good News I got $235 for (trading in) my IPhone 5 from Sprint, so I will now be able to get a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 from Sprint from money in my next Pay Check.
