It's the button you press to request a CLI online.

Its a button on most of the CC website that says "request credit limit increase." Sometimes they just up ur limit by pressing it. Everyone calls it the "luv button".

Re: Stupid question, but what is " luv button?"

If all you do to get your CLI is press a luv button, is it only ever going to be a SP?

In many  cases you will be asked a few questions, mainly salary, housing costs and perhaps what limit you are looking for.    Then, whether it is a HP or SP depends on the issuer.  In some cases, if they have done a recent SP as part of account watching, they may use that.  Others will do a HP anyway.  Some, like Citi, tell you afterwards if a pull wasn't done, but of course that's not all that useful for planning.

Not always, my BofA & Barclay's are HP 99% of the time. Best to call if you aren't sure.

Citi and Chase are usually HP as well. AmEx is an exception in that they almost always SP for CLIs.
