I have been using my HSBC credit card for 18 months with a clean repayment history. How can I request a credit limit increase, and what factors does the bank consider?

Tip from someone who made this mistake: never max out the credit limit in the first 6 months. Banks track utilisation, and high utilisation right after approval often triggers a credit limit decrease or even an account review.
