CC companies are in holiday mood. Time for CLI!

Chase and Discover used to be very stingy about CLI to me. I've been saving my credit to refinance my car. Last week, I got the new loan with local CU for 2.24% EQ score 750 so I'm open for new inquries. Smiley Tongue

 

Today I tried my luck with few. 3 lowest cards I have.

Don't bother to try with CrapOne.

Chase went from $2300 to $7500 with a hard pull. Requested 10k.

Discover went from $3500 to $6500 with no pull. Wow! Smiley LOL Requested 10k.

 

US Bank Cash+ CLI is peding. May not be a hard pull. Trying to get 10k from 6k.

 

4 other cards are $10k+. Don't want to push it hard. I'm happy with 10k mark.

Re: CC companies are in holiday mood. Time for CLI!

The Chase Freedom is a former WaMu card I had around 2007. Started with $1000. Chase took over and I've beeing trying to get CLI few time in the past. Each time they gave $300-$500 CL so 5k increase is huge. I was thinking they would deny my request for 10k and I would ask them recon for 5k. CSR transfered to lending dept. Leding dept rep asked few questions then put me on hold. He came back with $7500. I took it and ran fast. Smiley Very Happy
