Re: citi cli

I might be wrong, but I think you need to wait until your 6th statement generates before you are eligible for a CLI.  My husband was approved for his Citi Simplicity card on May 18th and he is waiting for his 6th statement to cut before he requests a CLI.

 

In regards to the amount to request, I would ask for 3x your current limit.  Good luck!!!


FICOs: Walmart TU08 800 4/3/13; TU98 783 5/2/13; EQ 758 5/2/13; EX 741 (per US Bank 7/24/12)

My Wallet: Amex Gold NPSL w/Pay-Over-Time; Amex Optima Platinum $25K; Amex Costco TE $5K; Amex BCE $4K; BofA Visa $10.1K; Cap1 Cash Rewards Visa Signature $8K; Chase Freedom MC $7.5K; Citi Simplicity Visa $10.9K; Discover $5K; US Bank Cash+ Visa Signature $20K; Walmart Discover $10K

Congrats!  I'm coming up on the 6 month mark too.  Out of curiosity, were you notified in anyway that you were eligible for the CLI?  Did they email you, or did you see something on your main account page?  Or, did you just wait until you got the statement and then submit the request?
