Citi CLI!!!

I've had my Citi Diamond Preferred since last August, and my 6th statement just cut today. My CL was $6800 and I put in an online request for an additional $2200 -- I was hoping to bring it up to an even $9000. The request was approved, but for a lower amount -- $750, bringing my CL up to $7550. It's an odd amount, but I'm still very happy for any increase (I never know how much to ask for), as this makes it my highest limit on any of my cards.

 

And, it was a soft pull. What a nice start to my day! Smiley Happy

Re: Citi CLI!!!

That's excellent!!! $750 is better than nothing.

I am wary of Requesting a CLI with CIti because everyone has reported such different results when they request them. Some HPs, some SPs, some approved, some denied. I just wish it was more predictable, but regardless I will be pushing the button in a few months also.

In My Wallet: Amex BCP (12/12) $50,000, Chase Freedom (12/12) $16,500, Cap1 Quicksilver (6/12) $14,000, Barclaycard Rewards (5/13) $10,500, Citi Prestige (4/16) $30,000

No, actually it came back saying my credit wasn't pulled. They did SP me a few weeks ago on EQ, so I'm assuming that the increase was sitting there for the asking based on that pull.
