I've benefitted from others sharing so I thought I would return the kindness.

Stats at time of App/Request

FICO8 --> TU = 731, Eq = 686, Exp= 691

Utilization = 49%, Limite $42,050

AAoA = 70 months

Length of history = 23 years

Inquiries --> TU=0, EQ=3, Exp=8. None in the past 6 months and only 3 in the 12 months.

Income = $150K

No cards in the past 12 months, 1 personal loan and 1 car loan in that time.

Cards --> CSR ($25.2K), CSP ($8K) Cap1QS ($8.25K), Disco ($600)

1. CSP - Called in for Credit Limit increase. Resulted in a hard pull and instant approval for $6500 bringing my total limit to $14,500

(Should I have asked for more?)

2. Cap1 Venture 1 - Cold app with no pre-approvals (it showed none available when I tried). Received a instant approval with SL of $20,000. Pretty thrilled as my cash is tied up for a while and the 0% is quite helpful.

Was actually pretty surprised by both as Cap1 denied every CLI request on my Cap1QS1 for the past year and I am using 75% of my total available credit at Chase.

My credit limit increased by 60% in one shot.

Excellent.

I have similar scores. Income is roughly 60k less than yours. Chase approved me for 6400 freedom unlimited. Immediately apped for CSP. Waiting for 2 weeks to see what happens.

Enjoy your fresh CLIs.

Good luck to you.

I am not sure whats going on with Discover. At the time I apped my lowest Credit Limit was $8k for the CSP.

I had two new cards in the previous 3 months. Thats it. I think my fico was high 600's.

My SL was initially $1000. They randomly dropped it to $600.

This was a year ago. Discover wont give me a CLI. Every so often I transfer the full $600 and pay it off. Still nothing,.

I try for a CLI every month. Also, they seem to use my TU score in California which is my highest at 730+. Last month they refused to increase from $600 but CSP gave me a $6500 limit increase and Cap1 gave me a $20k card.

Go figure.
