How long have you had the card?

Below is an link which provides some guidance on how to request it:

That worked the treat, now the pathetic $1k limit on my BCE card is a slighly less pathetic $3k.

Awesome + congrats on the CLI.

Did you have a similar issue finding the option on the AmEx portal?

It seems it's hit or miss on which profiles it displays. Some folks have the option while others have to go through some hoops.

Since Aug 2022. Just pulled the trigger. Got denied for having too many inquiries.

When do you folks think I should retry?

@FinStarYes, I used the link. I never downloaded their app, but the option to request a CLI has not appeared on the web site for me yet.
It could be because I only just hit 3 months and 1 day since I activated my card, and it simply had not appeared yet.

Well, bummer.

Since the CLI was declined due to credit reasons (i..e. inquiries), then your next request window is 91 days from today.

How many inquiries do you have? I had 11 on TU and 5 on EX when I got my CLI.

They used EXP. I have 10 since jan 2022 and 8 of these 10 since August.

What's the current limit on the card? Is that the only AmEx card you have?
