was thinking about asking for 2k?(proabably counter with 1500)

end of october will be 4 months since opening.

I think it depends on your scores and report. If you read the earlier posts, asking for double your current limit seems to be standard.

well i got a letter today from my bank on why i was denied my odp line. 

said my account history wasnt long enough (okay dropped from 1.7 years to 8 months) 

but tu score they listed was 724. 

havent apped for anything since. 

just changes from balances. 

i just want to ask enough to get a good limit but not have a hard pull. or have to send in verification taxes. as my new job (4 months) i havent filed for them yet.

It's always a soft pull with that number. Maybe itsrod will chime in and give you some advice, I'm pretty new to this.

The automated CLI button on the website wouldn't work.  

So I called the contact number on the site. 

My orig CL was $1300.  Asked for and got a CLI @ 6months to $2800.

This time I asked for CLI to $5000 and was instantly approved for $5800. 

It's good to have high scores.

Nice! Was the $5800 increase a web request or call in?

It was a call in.  I tried to use the button, but it wouldn't work. 

I had to confirm some info over the phone.

They may double you up to $1600 as long as your fies are looking good.
