Expect a HP.

My DH asked for an increase to 4k after his 2.5k approval. The CLI was granted so yes they do them. You can also use the secured message center to send in your pay stubs; which will probably assist you in getting a CLI

I got cash rewards with $7500 limit. 2 weeks later I asked for a platinum card. Approved for $2500. I'd like to get that limit to at least $5000.

You can always ask but be prepared for a counter offer from them

I'll ask for 7500 in case they counter maybe I'll still get what I want. NFCU has not said no to anything yet.
