Asking for a CLI on Citi Costco Visa

[halos24]

Has any one asked for a cli? I know it's going to be a hard pull, my Amex Costco always stayed at 1,200 since I had it back in 2011!!!! I am willing to take the hp, I already have aCiti Hilton Visa with 11.5k cl and a Citi Simplicity at 2,500. Just checking and will post my results.

No way for us to give you an answer that would be 100% correct. The best way to to go for the CLI and if denied they will give you the reason.

I requested a CLI after adding the Costco account to my Citi profile - I have an existing Simplicity card.  The request page did not indicate that a HP would be made, the CLI was approved, and I haven't received any notifications of a HP yet.  Note that I requested and was approved for a CLI on my Simplicity account within the last 30 days and that was not a HP either.

Interesting on my other two Citi cards the option of just putting in my income pops up, but for the Costco one it does state a HP would be needed. I bit the bullet and requested 10k. I will report back!

please do. and if they only partially approve your request, call their EO and ask for it to be reconsidered.

I called in since they also sent my husband his card with our last name mis-spelled!  After a long 25 minute HOLD the rep did apologize but stated it was not approved and could not tell me why.  I then asked well can I transfer some of the CL from my citi hilton or simplicity over?  She said NO.  Great... I wonder if calling the EO would help?  

really dissapointed since this is my lowest limit card at 1,200 and Amex never ever game me luv on it, and here I am with Citi also same thing.  I almost feel I should close it and apply again!!!

Can I ask when did you get approved for the Costco Visa? Did you request for CLI right after your approval? or after you activated your Costco visa card?
