Hey All -
I've seen a number of questions around when to request CLIs at BofA, and I've asked myself. I talked to a CSR who confirmed that it's suggested to wait six months between requests.
About a month ago I requested CLIs on both of my BofA cards (one CashRewards Sig, one Platinum Plus Visa - former FIA). I got an increase from $5k to $7k and $1k to $3k respectively. I thought I could've gotten more, so I just went for it again today. Got approved from $3k to $6k on the Platinum, 7-10 day message on the Sig. I called Recon and talked them through everything (my income, job, etc) and they approved me from $7k to $15k.
Not a bad day's work. This was more for information, since a lot of what I found was somewhat outdated. Hopefully this helps someone looking.

HP on TU?
Both prior CLIs from last month were soft pulls.
Not sure about the one today. Considering I don't want any new credit cards or expect to apply for new credit in the next year, HP would be okay for now.
Great limits Congrats! Thanks for sharing.
great job!!

Congrats on the CLIs!!! Report back to us whethere it was a HP or SP. BofA is well known for doing everything with a HP (including transfering CLs from one account to another)
