Re: Citi CLI - Measley $1400

I will offer my congrats even though you may not be happy with a $1400 sp increase because to me, seeing as its not a hp cli, i would look at it as a bonus, $1400 you didnt have before. I can only wish Citi would show me some soft pull love but just goes to show not all creditors are created equalSmiley Happy. Enjoy Smiley Happy

I appreciate your congrats, and you are right. I just want this account to reflect my other accounts without a HP.

Re: Citi CLI - Measley $1400

Congrats! Understand your logic, but a 15% increase is pretty good. I don't even think a single HP would get you where you want to be. I want my second Cash+ to be equal to my first and US Bank won't give me anything even with an HP.

It's nothing personal. Citi is well known for $1400 CLI's.

Re: Citi CLI - Measley $1400

Talk to anyone at Chase or BoA and how much they would like for any sort of SP CLI. This is how Citi works!

Congrats.   It may not seem like much, but that's pretty standard for Citi SP CLIs.  If you want your head to swirl over a CLI from Citi,  you'll need to take an HP.   Or just plug away every 6 months and inch your CL up with SP CLIs.

Re: Citi CLI - Measley $1400

Agreed $1400 may not seem much but it was a SP

Have to take a HP for the big ones.

Congratz either way.

I hope to get my $1400 every 6 months. 

Look at my SM or AARP card Smiley Sad

Re: Citi CLI - Measley $1400

Congratulations, revjamesl!

 

A  $1,200- $1,600 CLI on a SP is actually fairly standard for Citi. If you'd like more, you can consent to a HP and see the direction in which that takes you. Smiley Happy

I'm not a Citi fan, but your CLI is still 3X what Discover typically gives me on a regular basis Smiley Frustrated
