Re: AMEX CLI Button Missing?

Thanks for posting the link. Took a shot and actually got a CLI! My BCP toy limit of $1K opened in Nov, was upped to $2K.  Better than nothing I guess. Not sure what that means about how they feel about me. BCP CLI June 11 22.png

I really wan tthe HH Surpass, and have recently been getting the "You are prequalified..." message on the card page, but am too scared to apply and get another $1k SL.

Is it no longer 61 days for CLI req for Amex?

Had the Delta Gold since Apr 7 and link is saying account recently opened.


Could be between 91 and 181 days now. I have first-hand experience. Waited almost the full 181 days. Maybe around 160. Granted this was my first revolver ever with Amex (BCP).

Amex CL upped to 6 months

All: 

 

I got an Amex BCP last March- 2k.  The following month I got a Delta Plat Skymiles for 2k.  I've put heavy spend on each, got the SUBs early amd PIF several times s month.  
I've read about the CLI buttons here and after I got the sky card I called them about a billing question.   This was before the stock market is what it is: I was told a CLI could be requested at 2-3 months.  
Yesterday, I still didn't see the button.  So I called.  They're now saying 6 months.

Thanks for the info.  I'll just plan on waiting 6 months.  Glad my new Delta card is $10k... the old one was $1k so I'm not as anxious for a CLI with the new account.

Re: American Express CLI

Thank you so much for the link. I just used it and increased my Amex BCP from $6k to $18k. Magical!

The link may or may not be showing up, but that doesn't mean you aren't eligible/can't use the direct link posted here and see if it'll let you request before 6 months.

Yea- when I do the link, it says i'm not elegible because I 'recently opened an account' with them.

Just keep periodically checking it. You may become eligible to request in the next 2-3 months.

Re: Can't request an American express credit limit increase?

I can'tfind my response so I may not have responded back in the Winter. Sorry for the delay.  I'm planning to hit the Luv button again soon. I was told that my credit was too new, my file was too thin....  I'm only 3 months from having a 2 yr old card.  My Amex is officially 1 year old now.  And my 4 cards are all paid off. My scores are in the 700s. I think it's a good time to try again. Anybody see a potential snag?
