Recon NFCU Plat Approval for higher SL

Anyone have tips for this? Just submit request via the private message app online? We received instant approval for $15k - want to shoot for $25k.

Does you DTI support a $25K SL? That is the question I would ask, which is what NFCU considered when they approved you for $15K. 







Your FICO credit scores are not just numbers, it’s a skill.

I'm well under 30% on a 6 figure salary after living and auto loan.

All you can do is try. Does DW have any history with Navy outside of the Plat CC? If not, they may want to see more payment history before raising the limit.

She’s had a checking account with them for around 6 years.

Checking accounts and what you have in bank bear little weight in Navy credit decisions. Why not give it 3 months to build some history? Rome wasnt built in a day lolSmiley Wink

I think this is a good idea, just because they can see how you use the card, and maybe the chance will be more likely for them to give you the increase.
