There is no way I could pay off my cards every month if I maxed them out, wow!

Edited for typing on my phone...

Me either. I have over $200,000 in credit line, so that would be one hell of a month! (Not all on one card. I have a pile of cards.)

Yup. Me too, and I use different ones for different things at different times. Only my credit line is about 170k. Still a helluva shopping spree.

I maxed it out shopping for an international client over 2 months..... One time only in my whole career. They wired me the money, which sent up a whole bunch of red flags.
I would be very careful about spending to your limit even if you pay it off every month. This may work for a particular person's situation but not for all. I think the best thing to do would be to check with your credit card company and ask what they think the impact will be. I just read online, true or not? as it is online, that the cc companies report the balance on a particular day each month and not the due date so if your company does that they are reporting a high balance if the report goes in the day before you pay it. I would think the better thing to do if you spend the limit and can pay it off is to ask for a higher limit so you can stay under it. Personally I would feel a person who spends their limit each month is just one mishap away from not being able to pay some month in the future and therefore not a great credit risk. Just my opinion.
