Credit Cards

[WilliamBruce]

My EQ is 790 and my TU is 740.  Upon new application, which CCs would be most likely to give me the largest CL?  Thanks.

What's your highest CL currently? That is going to have a strong indication on rather you will get a new high CL.

also what is considered high to you? 

[WilliamBruce]

My largest CL is $2k.  I'm not much of a user of CCs.  I'm looking for a CL of around $10k for some international travel I'll be doing soon (but not particularly interested in a travel rewards CC).

Yup, those gave me a $10k CL, my largest one. Compare this to Chase, who gave me $300 some time ago  and raised it to a whopping $900 a few days ago.

To the OP: For travel abroad, and if you have good credit, some of the prime CapOne cards might be interesting. I don't think their CL is high, but they don't charge any fees for use abroad.

Who does Alliant pull? EQ like every other CU?

Everyone I've read here says they pull EQ. They did for me last week.

yep - EQ hard pull

[WilliamBruce]

My EQ is 790.  Do you think Alliant would be more lifely to give me a higher CL than Citi Platinum Select?

Odds are you will get 10K from Alliant. Citi may give more, may give less, depending on your income. I don't think Alliant asks for income. If 10K is sufficient go with them. If it was me I'd do both and I'd app Citi first.
