Previous limit was $22,200 after just a $200 CLI about a year ago. I cooled down on the 6 month CLI process and waited to get a raise at work. Put in a request to move to $32k last night and was approved after a short 10 minute wait. Not really sure why I didn't ask for more...9,800 just seemed like plenty.
For those of you wondering about the "magic" $25k number, I have never been asked to provide Amex any financial info. As I always suspected, if a person is generally creditworthy with a large enough income, that $25k number is not a barrier or trigger for financials. In fact, I will go as far as to say that myth has been busted for many years based on my readings here, and yet I continually see folks asking about requesting CLIs only up to 24,999. Here's your proof folks, 25k+ is possible without financial info.

I got 25k on my Everyday card no problem as well, and then got the BCP with 5k. Kinda scared to up it very much more, but I'm gonna give it a go soon enough.
Go for it! What's the worst that can happen?
Great increase! Congrats!!
Whoa, congrats!
Thats fantastic, congrats on your CLI approval
Thanks, all!
My Ex score is 792 according to the FICO score provided by Amex. AAoA is just over 4 years. Income is just under $80k. Only 1 inquiry on EX. No baddies ever. I'm a Transactor and have never paid interest. I run about $7-9k through my Amex per year.
Thats pretty neat... grats on the CLI
