Boscovs Major CLI

I applied for this card back in July went on a Comenity store card app spree (silly thing to do) this was just 3-4 months after I began my journey of rebuilding my credit. I was approved for $250 at the time.

Well, I just logged into the account and request a CLI and it went from $250 to $1000. That's a $750 increase. I decided to try again so I logged out, requested another CLI and it went to $1750. I kept on repeating the process until it gave me the 7-10 day notice message and I was able to get it up to $10,750!!

I have never used this card before btw

Since Comenity doesn't like to report until you have usage I guess I'll make a minor purchase now lol

Wow!  How many times did you have to do it to get up to the 10K?  I got the card off the shopping cart trick in November...bought one thing never used it again but would try for a CLI and always denied and yesterday I too went from 250 to 1000 then today from 1000 to 1750!

Re: Boscovs Major CLI

Boscovs took the longest.  Got the card in Nov I think and only used it once paid it off in December never used it again.  Weds was my first CLI ...he may need to be patient!  But I do want to say I have an inquiry now Smiley Sad but also yesterday I placed an order and since I had not used the card in almost 9 mo I got a fraud call and they asked me "security questions" off my credit report...I have to call them today.  I have never had a hard pull by commenity but I guess for the CLI I got if it has to be i'll take it.

Congratulations on your CLI. They will not remove the hard pull, since you did actually request a credit limit increase.
