Citi cli

Ant one know how long you have to wait for a Citi cli? I have the thank you card since late Aug. My DH has had simplicity since mid August. Is it a soft or hard pull?

Re: Citi cli

New cardmembers must wait 6 months before asking for a CLI.  Company policy.

Re: Citi cli

Citi has always pulled Experien for me, here in Georgia.  I have 3 credit cards with Citi and like clockwork, after my 4th statement I get an increase and continue to do so every four months.  I've been told the policy is 6 months for new accounts.....in my case, it was 4.  The increases have all been self initiated and never has my credit been pulled for a CLI.  Hope that helps.

Chase Marriott Visa $25,000 | Chase Southwest Visa $25,000 | PFCU Visa $20,000 | Capital One Savor $20,000 | Nordstrom Visa $20,000 | GUCU Visa $10,500 | CapitalOne Quicksilver Visa $10,000 | US Bank Perks Visa $9,000 | Barclays Cash Forward Visa $6,000 | BB&T Spectrum Cash Visa $3,500

Re: Citi cli

Pretty sure it's still 4 months even for new cardholders.  I had 2 friends that both got increases at 4 months with no credit pull.  It's usually instant online and you click accept to have the new CL implimented, some have reported about having to call in.

Re: Citi cli

Maybe this explains why there's a request CLI link when I sign in now.  It's been 4 months for me and I'm not sure if I should click it Smiley Indifferent since I don't want a hard pull.  Can anyone tell me how would I know if it's a soft pull before I click the button and how much is a normal request for an initial cli with Citi?  I have $4,000 credit line.

Re: Citi cli

Did anyone here try to call in after online CLI was denied? Any problem with doing so? Will it cost a HP if call in? Thanks.
