CLI and other questions

So my girlfriend starting building her credit about a year ago.

 

November of last year she did the following,

 

GTE cc $500 limit

Chase Freedom $500 limit

 

 

GTE car loan $24k

 

 

She has never missed a payment on anything listed above. She carried a high balance once on a billing cycle. Other than that she has ran the balance up a few times in the $4xx range and paid them off far before the due date.

 

 

With that said she wants to get a CLI on both cards. What should she ask for?  She would really like them to be at $2k + so she can pay all her bills on them and turn around and pay them off each month.

If so ask for a C:I every 4 months ask for 10K they'll counter offer 

 

Chase Freedom $500 limit

Ask every 6 months but this lender will cost you an HP for all client requested CLI's ....auto CLI's are SP's 

 

 

GTE car loan $24k

Good luck 

 

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Re: CLI and other questions

Sorry that was GTE Federal Credit Union.

 

 

Any advice on what I should ask Chase for? Or do they just set a new limit automatically after the hard pull?

Chase will ask how much you want ....Phone or online 

Most lenders and I can't speak for GTE but are every 6 months but since you're not sure if a HP will be required ask first but state you don't want the request to affect your credit score due to a HP unless your willing to take it anyway to increase the CL

Good luck and sorry for the late response
