They wont seem to budge on my CLI when I am spending this much, as well as having other larger limit cards that i could use instead. Even my Fidelilty Amex that I dont use anymore gave me a CLI lol. Anyways, any thoughts to how I could get an auto increase? or just patience
I don't hear of Citi doing very many auto-CLIs; however, they are very good with SP CLIs. I have 6 Citi cards, and each one gets a 1200-1500 CLI every six months. I've kinda stopped requesting though because I want a decent limit for the Premier card I plan on applying for in a few months. People have been having a lot of success with Discover, but Citi has been far more generous for me.
Interesting datapoints here. I have the cities Hilton and aa plat card (downgrade from exec). My lines have not changed on as card which is just over year old and Hilton is only five months. I'm holding off since its a pain to combine citi lines and I doubt I will keep the as card next year (unless I can PC it to DC).no point in my mind of growing an AF card that I may want to drop in a year or two. Also I want to pick up premier card this week.

My discover was my first non store card that started at $500, and now its at $3,500 so I am content with that. I wish my DC was around there, or a bit more. Specially since I stopped using my Fidelity which is at $5,500.
As I said, I don't hear of Citi handing out very many auto CLIs, as evidenced by the lack of replies to this thread. Hopefully others will chime in if they have had success. Upon doing a search, you can see that it's not a common occurrence with Citibank compared to other lenders. So I gave you the next best option, which has been quite effective. If that won't work for you, then you can either take the HP and try for a larger limit now; or you can keep waiting indefinitely to see if they eventually give you what you seek. From personal experience, I've never been given an auto CLI from Citi, but I also never have issues obtaining SP CLIs either. So, as they say, YEMV.
Good luck.
