These forums come through for me yet again! Ive had my Freedom for 10 months now, just about a week from my 11th payment and I logged onto my account  (I do this daily to see if ive had a CLI) and to my excitement I had a double CLI on my freedom card! Went from $2200 to $4400, wish they gave me enough for an even $5k but im happy with this. So last month I didnt pay my marriot card in full, wanted to make two payments to pay for a big purchase and when i left a balance Chase gave me an auto CLI of $1000. I read many times on these forums that Chase likes to see people carrying a balance and it held true for me then. So i thought, well im going to have to see if it works for my low limit Freedom card. So I paid that Marriott card off in full and then left a balance of $1400 on my freedom card. After the statement  cut nothing happened, I was on the verge of calling and asking for a CLI  but tried to be patient, and sure enough less than a week before the next payment was due they doubled my limit! It worked! Super excited! This next month ill be trying this on my weak Discover card, they dont want to give me anything. Should I transfer a thousand from my Marriott card to get my freedom Signature eligible or just wait for another increase? Thanks again to everyone on these forums


Congratulations.

How do you keep up with all those cards?

Thanks! I just use the calandar on my Note 3 to keep track of all my due dates. Easier than you think. I check my calandar every day to make sure I never miss a payment. I use most of my cards every month. I will be getting rid of my Cap One secured card, Fingerhut and three of my five comenity cards next year when they reach their two year marks. I used them as rebuilders.

Congrats Smiley Happy

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Re: Chase Freedom auto 2x CLI

Thanks! Think I should move a thousand from my Marriott card to my Freedom and ask for the signature? Is it even possible?

IIRC you can 

Could be wrong but pretty sure Chase allows
