Re: JCREW CLI !!! Without any payments

With a credit line of 250 at JCREW, they should know better than not to increase credit lines to a higher limit. What is 250 gonna buy you at JCREW? A Tie, pair of socks and maybe a polo shirt lol.

LOL. I love J.Crew but I also like to buy on sale. You can then maybe get an extra shirt and pair of socks with that $250 CL...lol.

Re: JCREW CLI !!! Without any payments

Holy smokes..! I just opened this card last week through shopping cart trick and was approved with $750 limit. I just randomly decided to press the LUV button and BOOM - $200 CLI! to $950

 

What the heck?! I've only made a $38 purchase and havent even paid or got my first statment.

 

Kinda wacky but kinda awesome!

I hit the Luv button for JCREW and I received a $200 dollar increase without a statement being cut. I open this account two weeks ago. Wow! This forum is very helpful in letting you know about getting CLI!!!


Congrats on the CLI!

 

I haven't had any luck on them with the shopping cart trick.  I might try them in a few months again when I'll make a step out of the garden.  They definitely seem to give good CLIs

Re: JCREW CLI !!! Without any payments

I'm tempted to try pressing it again...I'm scared of a hard pull or something though! Anyone ever do a two-in-a-row-cli?

Did you get an instant increase?  I've tried with express but just said they would send a letter.  I guess that's the equivalent of a 7-10 day message for a new app or something.

Yeah it was instant. Just put in income number and hit submit and bam, "congrats, your new credit limit is $950"
