Congratulations and thanks for the data points. How long have you had the card?

Two years.   They gave me my ED at $8000 and my BCE at $10000.  Amex is awesome but bad at mathSmiley Wink

My first Amex was a Delta Gold I got when my EXP was 614.  SL was $1000.  I requested CLI 4 times at 644, 654, 661, and 680 and was denied each time.  I eventually downgraded and put in the SD.  I've been at 690 for a while so I gave it another try for fun.  Finally they increased to $3000.  DP's for anyone frustrated by toy limit purgatory.


Congrats.  i still have yet to recieve one for my Amex cards, but soon enough i'll just combine them all to one card and work on a CLI there.

I know requesting a CLI on my BCE would have been what most people did but I really don't want monster limits.  I plan on closing it and moving the limit to my ED anyway.  For some reason, I was determined to make Amex budge on my Delta even though I haven't touched it since I got my Platinum.  Stubborness is worth about $2k I guessSmiley Wink

For me, i would do the largest one, and then since moving limits is so easy, i would filter it out to the other cards that way.  Everyone has a different way to do it.  you did what works for you Smiley Happy
