50k is the max PenFed will allow across all unsecured credit.

 


On that thread, someone has a card with a $50K, got by combining CLs.  May have changed since then!

Hey now!  PenFed is awesome, and I still haven't qualified for any of their CCs... Smiley Tongue

 

When I joined my scores were less than stellar, and they still approved me as a member.  6 months later they refinanced a car loan that I had through Chase at 9.2% (down to 1.9%), and I'm waiting for the day I get the pre-approval for one of their cards.  Until then, I'm just tending everything else in the garden and waiting on them to make their move... Smiley Happy

Its still a 50k threshold across all products. Recently was "pre-approved" for the Travel rewards amex putting both of my cards (combined CL) at the 50k mark.
