I've had two CLI's in the last week: AMEX Optima upped my CL from $32,900 to $37,900 (an automatic increase, I didn't ask for it) and BoA increased my CL from $21,600 to $26,000. I've never asked for a CLI before so I tried with BoA just to see what would happen. Both of these accounts are long term (28 years for AMEX, 16 years with BoA). In today's environment a long history with the company makes a big difference.

I've received auto CLIs on my GEMB Sams Discover and Citi cards within the past 2 months. And I've CLI'd my BOA and Chase Freedom.

I've had 2 in the last two weeks, both requests.

2 weeks ago I had one from Chase, yes a hard pull, but it doubled my CL from 6,500 to 13K

And just a couple of days ago I requested one online from BoA and went from 7,100 to 11,700. I don't get how they come up with those CL's. Not quite as nice as Chase, but no hard pull and enough of one to bring my balance on that card to under 50%

DW just got a CLI from BoA after asking for one online (actually, I asked in her place ) The same income I put in for my request (just in reverse) and she gets instant approval and I get the 3-5 day notice. Must be the difference between a high 700 average FICO score and a low 700 average score.

Just hit the BofA luv button and went from $15K to $18K. Opened the account this past February, and after 6 weeks they had already CLI'd me over the phone from $10K to $15K.

I also got a CLI from BoA. Logged into online banking to check something, and noticed they had given me a nice 4K auto CLI.

Now, BoA and Amex are my highest CLs, both at 25K.

DW went from 12k to 13.9k (I never know how much to ask for, probably should have asked for more) I think I asked to go from 5k to 6.9k.

I got a whole $300 (taking me from $750 to $1050) from the ever-generous Cap1 - actually, given their reputation for being so stingy CLI-wise, I was amazed even to have got that.

Also Macy's doubled my CL from $700 to $1400 a couple of weeks ago - now, if only they'd actually report that to the CRAs, that would be splendid...

Oh, and AmEx upped me from $2800 to $7400 on my Delta SkyMiles back in May. I'd forgotten about that.
