. I moved my direct deposit over, so we will see what happens for me in about three months. Please keep us updated on what happens for you.
Will do @PlaidRaptor. I wonder if the $7100 SL is some type of indicator. It seems like such an odd amount to be a coincidence.

I agree that it is an oddly specific amount. I have seen other data points of people getting the same starting limit, albeit with very different profiles. Maybe NFCU's computers like the number 7,100 
excellent! answers my most recent thread, sorry!

Circling back with an update @PlaidRaptor :
I waited until the day after my 3rd full statement cut and requested a CLI through my login on the NFCU website. The request went to pending review. The next day, I logged in and saw that my limit had been increased by $8k.

If it is hard, but my credit reports are frozen, what would happen?
Thank you!
reports can be frozen, just do it online or in the app, don't call and it will be a soft pull. They just use your monthly account review soft pull.
If you call in for CLI - this will result in a HP. As you read through these threads everyone avoids the phone call at all costs. Instead,CLI's are done via the NFCU app from your mobile device.
if your reports are frozen.......not sure I've ever done that with Navy. But i'm sure someone from this megathread may have experience.

This is consistent with my experience from a few months ago. I requested a CLI through my online login with all of my bureaus frozen. It wasn't an instant approval, but the increase came through the following day.
