I've had "financial" reviews, but they did not show up on my credit reports. I had to show proof of income on the spot or loose my cards. The only thing that triggered that was a long history of minimum on time payments. Banks are getting very nervous these days.

They gave me a CL of $25,000. No household income provided. No occupation provided. I don't think I've even used the old green card in the last few years. So there you have it.

I got a bit of pushback but eventually they approved it. The credit limit is $13,200. I don't know how on earth they got this number. Who knows what I told them 20 years ago about what I was doing or earning. I don't even remember.I called to ask for a CLI to $30,000 and again refused to provide HHI. They didn't ask about occupation. I'll let you know if I got an increase. They indicated my income as "0" because they didn't have a "prefer not to answer" option.
I think most of the FR's have come at higher CLI's. I'd be interested to see if you get the increase w/o providing the info. Some health CL's have been destroyed lately if you believe what you read over at CB.
BTW, I wasn't posting this to brag. Just to show how crazy the whole system is.
