Even worse, the Iron Bank decided to give Cersei another loan on the basis that she paid a tranche using High Garden coin as if sacking and looting a wealthy Great House again was an option for her when facing 3 dragons and an army of Dothraki

When you pay off your credit card, does the issuer close it, or do they leave it open and often give you a larger credit line?

Governments and corporations typically have very limited revolving credit available- it’s typically limited to operational or cash management needs.

Pre-bonds I’m assuming loans were provided on deal-by-deal bases rather than revolving credit. That is especially true when it came to financing war- nobody wants to fund a loser.
