Target CLI question

[britt585]

Good morning,

I've had my Target card sincee Nov 2019 300 CL. I havent received CLI. This is my smallest limit. I love target..lol...I use the card heavily and I leave a balance only because thats what ive to do in order to get CLI. I was paying in full at first. Anywho I know yoou cant request a CLI like a normal credit card..lol... I was wondering can I write to anyone asking to review my account?... I really dont want to close my account it hasnt grown in  almost 2 years....

There's nothing you can do to speed it up. It took over 4 years before I got my first, then it was an increase every 3 months before it stopped. Hopefully it'll start again soon. I'm only 1 or 2 away from a conversion.

I closed mine for (2) reasons

1) don't use it

2) would not grow

Actually closed it the day they CLD'd it (50%) for non use. ( 6 months in the SD - one $7 purchase in a whole year)

Some have reported success by updating their income monthly (even if it doesn't change, just reenter the info).

But other than using it normally, there is nothing to do.  If it clicks for them, they will increase your limit.  I've received 2 increases in the 4 years I've had mine, but it's been 2.5 years since my last one.

Probably make it hard to grow because they know every time you go in there you're not leaving without spending $100+, even if all you went in for was a sponge. People would max out their cards in a few weeks.

I also opened my card in November, 2019... eagerly awaited November, 2020 when they were handing out Christmas CLIs but nothing but a lump of coal for me.

I think I have a better chance of winning powerball than getting a Target CLI -- and I don't even buy lottery tickets!
