I paid off my credit card before the end of the payment time but the credit available is still the same?

as it was before I paid it off. When they say I have, like, a $500 dollar credit limit is that only 500 dollars a month even if I pay it off or what? I've paid 470 which was the amount I had on it, but it says I only have $30 credit available.|||Give it another day to show up. If the credit isn't issued in 72 hours, call the company.





If you spend $500 on Monday then pay it off Tuesday - by Wednesday or Thursday you can spend $500 again if you wanted.








***Kudos for paying off the balance!!!|||It means you can never exceed a $500 balance at any time.
