No limit increase upon activation of card

Credit specialist at discover said it would be three months before a cli can be possible. How true is this?

True. I asked upon qualifying and they said if I wasn't happy with my CL that I could ask for a CLI in 3-6mo.

I was told three months with an exact ending date (Apr 30th) Not sure if I remeber hearing anything about 3 to 6 months but who knows...

Re: No limit increase upon activation of card

Took me exactly six months after applying and some heavy usage on my Discover card to get an auto CLI.

Maybe limits are increased quicker according to scores? Who knows.

I get auto CLIs of a few hundred $s every so often from discover. Barely use the card anymore though.

It's completely true. In most cases, they're not going to give you a CLI until you show responsible usage. In Discover's case, heavy usage is key.

 

You can request SP CLI with Discover every 90 days, so after 3 months you can ask.
