Just got approved for a CLI on my Amex Everyday - it went from $2600 (lower than my Chase Freedom Student) to $4900. It isn't even 2X my previous limit, but considering I started at around $1500 when I applied for it last July as my second card, I'd say it's pretty good. Especially considering that my income isn't super high (being a full-time college sophomore is kinda limiting in that sense lol).
I was pre-qualified for the Amex Gold awhile back, so hopefully with the increased limit and the two new cards I added (see previous post), those offers come back as months pass 
.
Congratulations on your CLI!
Congratulations on your CLI!!
Congrats on the new CL! For curious minds, what'd you ask for the increase to be, if you don't mind sharing?
as of 1/1/23

Still a nice increase and sizeably over the other cards you have right now. That'll only help you in the future applying for new cards because you'll have a higher limit sitting there. If you can, make sure to ask again after another 181 days just to get it over the $5k mark so you don't have any concerns getting a Visa Signature down the line (many will have minimum $5k SL, some are lower).
Sweet, enjoy the CLI
