OK, so I opened my mail today and Juniper decided to decrease my limit from $2500 to $1750. No good reason, just states "Your credit line has been lowered to reflect your spending. Based on your spending history, and since you are only using a small portion of your available credit, we have lowered your credit line to $1750." Apparently I don't spend enough on it.

Which is fine, I mainly use my Citi Card. But I would like to have the option to put more than $500 on it without going over the 30% buffer that the credit score oh-so-hates.

Me, having time on my hands, typed up a letter to them, because I don't think their "reason" conforms to the Equal Credit Opportunity Act.
