Re: Can we have "OFFICIAL NFCU CLI - HOW IT WORKS!"

Update, got the condition exists please call when asking for a CLI...well i sent a secured message to them, and they just called...asked what i wanted as far as a limit (mind you i JUST opened this acct beginning of the month) so I said $7500.  (started with $3K limit)...she did security check questions, due to a Fraud Alert on my report then said okay it's been submitted you will hear something within 24 hrs...damn...was so hoping it was an instant approval...looks like it will be declined, it was worth a shot though...will try again in Dec 1, 2013  and see what happens then...

Re: Can we have "OFFICIAL NFCU CLI - HOW IT WORKS!"

Well, s--t on a gold-plated pitchfork!  I have a Cash Rewards Visa that had a $5,000 limit; some time ago they increased it to $6,500 (after I asked and they turned me down, but they inexplicably raised it anyway about a month later.)  I could not remember how many months that had been, so I looked at statements and saw that it had been at least a year (but I'm sure not much more than that, maybe exactly one year.)

 

So I filled out the form and asked for $12,000, and you could knock me over with a feather - instantly approved.

 

! ! !

 

I love that lil' credit union - yes, I do.

Re: Can we have "OFFICIAL NFCU CLI - HOW IT WORKS!"

Thanks for that tip.  But... they won't have to call me or request more information? (I'm always afraid of getting snagged in all of that.)  Do you think I'll discombobulate their whole system by putting through a request right after they just approved one?

 

It'll just come back with a different figure than I ask for... instantly?

 

I want to try this but I'd like to know if it's instant.
