Barclaycard Rewards CLI advise!!

Greeting everyone!  I just recieved a pre-approval letter from Brayclay today in the mail wasnt going to apply but, something in my head said do it so i did. I was approved for 2500 at  12mo. 0%. My question is should i wait til card gets here, wait 6 months, or ask before card gets in to ask for a CLI? Any advise would be most helpfull Thanks!

my advice is to wait for the auto CLI that usually happens after 6-8 statement. 9/10 you'll get an auto then. They may want to see some usage and history first. They are very fickle, fyi

I called the recon line and asked for higher limit right after getting approved for a Barclay card.  It didn't work but they seemed to pay attention and consider my request so I'd say go for it.  You can always take additional HP in a while after you receive the card if it's that important to you.

Their luv button CLI requests result in a hard pull on TU so DON'T.

 

The Barclay Rewards card seems to have a 6-month review policy. If you do well with the card for 6 months they'll likely give an auto CLI.

 

So just use the card, pay it down frequently, and you'll probably get CLI's without asking.
