Tried to read as much of this thread as possible, including the OP, but are CLIs generally SPs?

 

I have two cards with NFCU and both have $25k limits. I have 3 direct deposits per month that are a decent amount. Just curious if I'd get a HP or not.

 

Thanks!


If you request via the app or on desktop, yes, it's an SP. If you call in, it's likely to be a HP.

do your reports still have to be unfrozen even if it's going to be a SP?

No, your reports can be frozen as you already have an account with them so they are allowed by law to review your credit with SP even if they are frozen/locked. Good luck with your CLI.

Some more DP's from NavyFCU Facebook. Looks like a 9k increase on one card and a 8.5k increase on the other

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing. I look forward to testing the new limits -- whatever they are -- myself in a few months.

Re: Navy Federal Datapoints Thread for Membership, CLIs, and Credit Card Products

Reading through NFCU megathread on when to app for 2nd card, CLI and PC.  I get a nice snail-mail surpirse today from NFCU citing "You've been been upgraded to a new - Visa Signature cash Rewards Card".  I didn't ask for it but, i'm not complaining so I'll accept.

 

Including History and NFCU relationhip Data Points since (me and we) appreciate data points: 

  • 07/2016 - BK 13 filed
  • 2018-2019 - Opened NFCU checking acct w/ (deposit $50 - $150) monthly.
  • 06/2021 - App'd NFCU Secured (blue card) w/$200 guidance from Fico Community expecting graduation within 6mos.
  • 07/2021 - BK 13 discharged!
  • 10/2021 - (90+ days) NFCU partially graduated gave me back my $200 deposit and bumped CL to $600.
  • 01/2022 - Secured card fully graduated to CL of $2,000 (card color changed from sad blue to green for go!). 
  • 04/2022 - 93 days later CLI attemp failed No-Go.
  • 07/2022 - 2nd CLI attemp failed again No-Go
  • 08/2022 - 3rd CLI attemp successful bumped up to $6,000 CL.
  • 09/2022 - Auto loan approved $15K @ 6.19% (not great but not bad).  Car shopping for my daughter.
  • 09/2022 - CashRewards upgraded without soliciting a PC. 

What's the point?   Be responsible with NFCU and they'll take care of you - something many of you have taught me from your posted experiences on these boards.   Let's keep passing it along.   I'm loving my NFCU Heart

The CLI is probably why you were upgraded. While it's no longer a hard boundary and VISA Signatures have been issued with much lower limits, the traditional minimum for a VS is $5,000, and a lot of lenders seem to automatically upgrade you after a CLI pushes you over that threshold.

Yes, absolutely correct.

When my cash rewards cli'd to 9700 from 3700 NAVY automatically upgraded me to signature and sent me a new signature card.

@SUPERSQUID @Anonymalous - Got it!  It's all new to me, no one ever in the world of financial institutions has ever sent me love letters like this.  Not long ago I got a solid "pre-approval" from PenFed anytime letters like this rendering good news is symbolic to my hard work in resuscitating my credit health and worthiness. 

 

On a seperate note, since I only have (1) CC with NFCU what do you recommend should be the 2nd NFCU card?   I'd love to get $25K card like some have posted on here.
