Haven't been on the boards lately so just wanted to check if this is still the case...can you still request a CLI for GE retail store cards roughly every 4 months without getting a hard pull? Thanks!

yes, but you have to call the number on the back of your card, its not availible via the website, I just got a CLI on all my GE cards in July.

In general, yes, though it's not guaranteed. I went through the automated system when I called the number on the website (after I was logged into my acct.). I guess because I called after hours. During the daytime, you might talk w/ a CSR.

 

BTW, I always ask for more than I want, since they'll counter-offer. That way, I know I'm getting the highest CLI I can. Good luck! :smileyhappy:
