I think you will like Citi CLI and they way they go about it. One CLI every six months online via SP. if they don't approve your requested amount they will counter offer.

Check out my siggy lines. $3K from Citi Diamond Pref.  Don't understand Citi. I am just past the one year mark. no CLI. Citi hates me now, and I don't know why. Chase and AMEX like me. Even fickle Barclays likes me. Not Citi. They said I have too much unused credit line available with OTHER cards. Probably the same issue they have with you. Gve me a horrible interest rate too.
