Re: 1 week till first discover cli !!

Actually, I believe with the revised form you can no longer ask for a certain amount. I wasn't able to. You plug in your income and housing payment and it comes back with whether you can have a SP CLI or not, and it will offer an amount. More than that will require a HP. Perhaps with the HP you can ask for a certain amount, that I don't know as I've never needed the HP, but the SP just is whatever they will give you. FWIW, that's fairly typical, Cap One is the same way

On the Discover CLI page, they don't ask you how much you want the increase to be. They only ask for your yearly income, your employer, and your monthly rent or mortgage payment. If you want to request a specific amount, you may have to call them.

Got it. Thats pretty unfortunate you can't ask for specific number with out calling them. I will soft pull and then ask for a higher number via chat.

How soon should you apply for a cli with Discover?

At 3 months just don't be too disappointed if Discover does not grant a CLI. It might take a whole lot longer to see the account grow. If this is the case...keep using the card and be patient. Good luck  ! 

 

FYI It took me 15 months to see the first move with my Discover CLI but then that was the account that did grow fastest after Amex.
