Discover CLI :D

Just wanted to make this a data point in case anyone wanted to try it: For the second time in 2 months I have asked for a credit line increase over the phone with the automated system. Both times it has said that I needed to speak with a CSR, and from there I just hung up. Well, both times I have seen a $1,500 increase the next day on my account. First one from $2,550-->$4,050, and now today I got a bump from $4,050 --> $5,550. Can I get a Roll Tide?... oh wait... wrong board. Smiley Happy

Congrats! I did 2 SP CLIs in a week and tried for a 3rd but they said it would have to be a HP.
