Hi all,
Today I applied for a CLI on my flagship and it was approved (from 17k-20k). I only asked for 3k more because I didnt think I would get approve for any more. But during a chat with someone from the credit card department, she noted that the computer suggested more but she wasnt allowed to tell me how much. Am I screwed? Arhhhhh I miss the max button so bad
. I sent an email to see if they would considere honoring what the computer suggested. Any advice? It was a soft pull, EQ 727. I do not want an additional card or a hard pull. Trying to clean up my report.
Congrats on the CLI!
If there is anything I have learned about nfcu, ask for the most and they will counter with what they will give if it's different. I don't think you can ask for another increase on the same card but maybe someone else can chime in if they have done a back to back request.

You could always SM and ask for a higher CLI using a SP only. Be adamant that you do not want a HP.
Thank you! I will try that.

SP? Soft Pull? Soft Inquiry? I didn't think that NFCU knew an SP existed let alone allow one?




















I was denied a CL increase after a HP about two months ago. Do you know if the 6 month rule applies in this instance since I was denied?

6 month rule only applies if you were approved. There is no set rule on when you can ask next after a denial, they will happily HP you every time you ask.
