Although I personally don't, my brother and boyfriend each have one:
Brother: Starting limit of $5k, has had the card for about a year and a quarter, and has had two auto CLI's of $250 each since then for a total of $5.5k
Boyfriend: Starting limit of $1.2k, has had the card for a little under a year and a half, has had 3 auto CLI's, so: 1.2k --> 1.5k --> 1.8k --> 3k
$7500. Opened it in 2010. Started out at $2500. They auto-CLI to $7500 over the 3 year period.
I'm at a whopping $1000. I've had it over a year with no increases. I've tried doing the increases with sp but then asked for hp and declined going further.
$4K in August. Hoping for an increase early next year.
My CL is $8000 right now.
They gave me two auto CLI's this year, I applied for the card back in April. So every 3 months they gave me an auto CLI. They may give me another auto CLI by year end.
opened August 2012 at 1500, now at 2000 (auto 500 cli 3 months ago). Called in twice for CLI via SP and always denied (collection on file).
$5,000 is my credit line that I've had since I opened the card in May. I pay in full each month so I'm hoping they will give an auto CLI soon.
Started at $2000 Aug 2012, now at $5000.
Current CL $18,000. Has been opened since late 90's.
