The Credit Limit Increase From Discover didn't come the quarter....very upset.

I opened my Discover More account in July 2009.  I received my first auto CLI October 2009 and second January 2010.  I expected to receive a third CLI  this April.   I didn't receive it.  I called the customer service number.  The option for my to ask for a CLI was offered in the IVR.  I asked for a set amount and got declined.  I am now stuck at $4100.

DI, you are lucky to got second ACLI.  I did not get second one.   May be because I don't use it a lot, not sure ....   I am stuck with 2.5k now.  Don't know when they give me another ACLI.

I would have waited until after these new credit card law enactments have settled down.

I had the CLI option on the IVR system... tried my luck.  Transferred to CSR who said they would need to do a hard pull...I said no thanks.  It's in my sock drawer now.  Their reward program isn't as great as everyone makes it sound IME.

Got my card in April 2009 and have received auto increases every 3 months. The 26th is my statement date so I'll see if I get another increase. When I activated the card they told me that they review accounts every 6 months for possible increases, so I was surprised when they started increasing me at 3 month intervals. Just goes to show that they are in control and when we think we've figured them out, they change the rules.

I'm really confused now.  I got an email this morning from Discover to check my messages on its site.  All within a week, I've received a CLI decline letter and CLI approval letter.  This what the letter says.

Yes, I used cashover twice since the opening of the card to get $20 each time.
