Would I be able to get a credit increase if I recently lost my job?

I have recently lost my job and have been unable to find another, unfortunately, right before I lost my job I paid my car insurance on my credit card and have about $300 left available on it. The bills are piling up and instead of going to collections I would rather consolidate my debt on one credit card. I am getting unemployment and have only about $700 debt on that card and only one other with about $200. I wanted to raise the limit from $1000 to $2000. Do you think they would let me even though I am unemployed for the moment? (P.S. I have a great work history and great credit history and am hoping to get another job within two months at the most) Thanks!
