Penfed Recon Holy Moly!!!

JLK93 — Tue, 24 Nov 2015 02:25:19 GMT

I've had my Penfed Platinum Rewards Visa Signature Card for 9 months. About a month ago I was approved for a cli from 14.5K to 20K. Early this morning, I faxed a request to reconsider my cli application for a 30K credit limit. Penfed emailed me back and said that I should submit a fresh application for a cli. So I did. I though my chances were slim.

The cli application was submitted for loan officer review. A couple of hours later it went pending. Then, a few hours later I was approved for a credit limit of:

$40,000

I still can't believe it! This is my highest credit limit. Penfed is my new favorite credit union. And this, from a credit union that once accused me of being an Egyptian with suspected ties to Al Qaeda.

Congrats oilcan! Thats a great CL! Penfed is my next card to get but not until my CS are in the 700's. Maybe next year when my IIB's fall off my CR's.
