Kohls CLI ??

I recieved my Kohls credit card in Dec of 2015 I've paid on time every month and I've requested a cli a couple of times and been denied I'm not sure what they require but is this typical of Kohls ?

Re: Kohls CLI ??

If it makes you feel any better, I've had mine since 11/15 and they haven't budged past $300.00 yet.  Starting to get annoyed.  If they don't give me a CLI after a year, I'm SD the card and never using it again.  Really irks me.

Starting Scores (9/19): EQ - 474/TU - 528/EX - 502
Current Scores (09/22): EQ - 617- TU - 638/EX - 647

I got my card in APril 2016, with a $300 limit. 6th statement cut, and I requested a CLI. New CL $700, it was a SP too!

 

NFCU $60.4k/PenFed $22.5k/Commerce $15K/53 $11K/Synovus $14K/BBT $11K/CapOne $12K/DCU $7.5K/BMO $7.5K/Chase $14.5k/Cabelas $10K/ and many many more!
Total CL $398600, plus car and RV loan.
Ooh. Ooh. Getting closer to that $500K mark!

Re: Kohls CLI ??

Do you use it a lot?  I don't use mine very often.  I carry a small balance but nothing major as far as utilization goes.

Re: Kohls CLI ??

I've had a Kohl's charge for 8 years. I haven't asked for a CLI and my CL hasn't budged. It's 1000. My actual FICOs are in the 830s or higher.  I've considered asking for one, but I want to see if they ever just do an auto. I use the card every couple of months but not for a whole lot.

Re: Kohls CLI ??

Wow @Enjay, 8 years and still waiting on an auto cli? Crazyness abounds , i wouldnt hold my breath lolSmiley Happy.

Ive read this card Maxes out at 3,000 which is weird to me as Macys and Pennies can dwarf that. Theres no Kohls where i live . I like Pennys most gor the good deals combined with their card. Macys pretty good but more expensive.

I wish all on this thread get your clis soon.Smiley Happy it really stinks especially for the person who uses the card the most because they are giving their business to that store more. one would think that that would be the client one would want using the stores card cardSmiley Wink. Best of luck everyone !!

Re: Kohls CLI ??

Yes I've heard that it caps out at 3000 as well I did use it all the time but I've eased up quite a bit I'm enjoying my Jcpenny card at the moment and also Macys offers quality things we will see what the year mark brings for Kohls card
