Even if you get a SP CLI, they are not usually huge (there can be exceptions). I don't know what kind of increase you're looking for but if you're wanting to go up significantly it may be more efficient to just eat the hard pull and ask for what you want.


I just got a SP CLI of $5,000. 


Yes, that's why I said there can be exceptions. However, if you are wanting a large, specific increase, it's more efficient to just get it over with and ask for what you want with a hard pull. While SP CLIs can be large they are often on the smaller end.

Their screen recently says that they may have to request a credit report, but that they will tell you before they do.

 

I recently obtained CLIs, and no HP occurred.


I've had my IT since 2014. The CLI screen has always, at least for my account, had verbiage about possibly needing to do a HP.

Based on your other limits and the It limit a HP (if approved) will likely only yield a $500 increase or so. How much do you spend on that card

With Discover (and Discover IT) the screen reads similarly - they may need a HP, but they tell you before they do. If you accept the SP answer, no HP is performed.

This is correct. Hard pull CLI's with Discover are almost always dinky.

Exactly, HP for a Discover CLI request likely to yield 500 or a denial, doesn't seem worth it considering OP can eventually qualify for SP. Have had several since the Disco SP CLI boom started, up to 8k.

I've had a decent number of auto CLI, all were $250. I did get a $1,000 once when someone posted they were giving SP CLI with their luv button.
