Same, same @Anonymous , mine dropped too, by 6 points, 800 down to 794, more than 1 balance reported;  finances before Fico, PIF already, but glad I went for my CLI when I did.

Hi @Anonymous , First off, my sincere condolences for your lossesSmiley Sad

 

I answered some things in RED and then put a some thoughts at the very bottom.

 

@Anonymous wrote:

Hopefully I ask the question in a way that makes sense. I've searched the board a bit and haven't located the answer (and it's likely I've overlooked it...in addition to everything going on in the world and work being insane right now, I had a couple deaths in my family the last couple weeks so my brain is fried). Forgive me if I've overlooked the answer.

 

My FICO9 on NFCU has spiked up to 747 from 704.

 

I have a GoRewards Card with a limit of $16k. My last CLI was on 12/28/19.

  • Can I apply for another CLI on 06/29/20 (or sooner)?  6 Months
  • What is the max for GoRewards?  $25K at least.

I've never applied for a CLOC.

  • If I want to do that, is it safe to apply for CLOC now and then try for the CLI later on the GoRewards? Navy is pretty tight with CLOC's
  • Do you need to apply for both at once? NO! can apply separately, Should be a SP for CLI on CC , HP on EQ for CLOC
  • What is the CLOC max and is it like with most that you try for the max and let them counter? $15K is max for the CLOC

In a nutshell, You would most likely get more by applying for a 2nd card with Navy, You could apply now.

Then you could ask for a CLI on your 1st card at 6 Months. (06/29/20)?

 

Unless you absolutely need the CLOC, I would steer clear of that, The APR is not that great, you will take a EQ HP

and they are NOT handing out $15K CLOC"s like candy ..(They used to)  You might get $500-$1500 on average.

 

I still say your best bet is to apply for a 2nd card. And you can do so now.

 

Good Luck!


Thank you so much on all accounts. With respect to the 2nd card, do you have a particular recommendation?

 

I largely use my AMEX suite of cards (Business Gold, Platinum and EveryDay) and consolidate points there.

 

Do most tend to lean Flagship or Platinum for a 2nd card with NFCU?

Re: Navy Federal Thread for CLI and Additional Cards

@Anonymous,

You could app for the Flagship?  .. I have The Flagship Visa Siggy, More Rewards Amex and The Platinum Visa.

I just checked, and right now there is no SUB on the Flagship (Normally $500 for $4000 spend)

The More Rewards and The Cash Rewards both have SUB's right now.

I would go with what fits you the best.
