Re: BofA Cash Rewards Visa Signature Approval/UBS Update

Congratulations on the new card and the amazing starting limit.  I will be curious to see how that one grows, I bet with you history you would be able to be one of those with the 99K limit

You are eligible for a CLI when the Request Credit Limit Increase line appears.


That isn't quite true.   The hyperlink appears when their automated system flags you as being eligible to request one on that specific card and that eligibilty is regularly checked and is sometimes withdrawn. 

 

There is also no set pattern as to when the link will appear.   Many people report it appearing at 3 month intervals but for example I've had it reappear within 3 weeks. 

 

You can click through and have a request denied.   You can also call if no link is present and successfully request a CLI.

 

Moral of the story: as with many other things with BoA their CLI-centric policies maintain a degree of flexibility .

Thanks for the clarification.  I think I'll wait a bit and put some decent payment history/spend on the new card.  Show them what UBS will be missing,

If you don't already have significant deposits with them (as in Platinum Honors class several times over) exercising the card hard over the next several months is the best way to maximize your odds of a successful CLI request.    They obviously like your profile as your SL is uncommonly high.

Are you with Merill Edge or ML? I'm curious as to whether thier branded cards are made differently aka Metal/thicker. Belated congrats on the approval and your legendary run with UBS lol.
