CSP increase too soon??

Lately, i've just been stuck on trying to increase my limits.lol. I just got my CSP about a week ago. Approved for 5k. How long should I wait till I ask for a CLI (SP of course)? I want to have a CC thats AT THE VERY LEAST, 7k. But i'm aiming for the 5 digits though.

With Chase you're pretty much guaranteed a HP for a CLI.

Rarely...definitely don't expect one. My dad has a 10 year old Chase card PIF every month never had an auto CLI. Called in recently for CLI it was a HP.

what?! Just saying! lol. I've been seeing all these posts about CLI's and i'm just like, alright, I need to get on with the program. I got an increase already through my Citi card, but I need more. I've pretty much contacted all my other credit card companies except for Chase and amex (Obviously since its a charge card).lol. WF said that they'd have to review it, and I should receive a letter in the mail with how much they were able to approve me for IF they approve me fore anything. I asked for 7k.
