I believe the general consensus is in order to get CLI's from Chase (typically) you need to request it, and it will be a HP.  There's been some anecdotal SP success through the executive office but YMMV.  

In your situation with a "toy limit" Freedom that I'd been using well for six months, if I didn't have a mortgage coming up in call it 12 months I'd take the HP for a potential increase.  I think the possible upside outweighs a short-term penalty on a single credit report if nothing else is in the pipeline.
