On your main account screen, go up to the top and hover over the customer service tab. The second option is "Request A Credit Line Increase". See what you get there.

Maybe that's the difference. If I tried to log in through HSBC's main page it would not recognize my login. Maybe I have a cheap version that used to be Direct Merchant's Bank or something.
That's probably why. Have you tried calling for a CLI?
Hit the luv button last Thursday, got the 7-10 day by mail reply. Received letter today, denied due to insufficient history with this card. Called Backdoor number, lady was very nice. She told me what I already knew, account was too new (just about 2 1/4 months). I asked whether I had gotten hit with a hard INQ, she said she didn't see any INQ notes, so that's a plus. I asked about CL possibly growing, she said it definitely was possible for my card, just not now. Asked about sale to CapOne, she said she wasn't authorized to discuss that. I thanked her, she thanked me, and that's all she wrote.
