Citi CLI's

Well been 6 month today since last CLI so have 2 citi cards currently.

 

My costco went from 10.5k to 13.5k so a SP for 3k

My DC went from 10.5 to 12k so a SP for only 1.5k. Then with HP to 25k

 

That finally made me take a HP on my DC requested 25k and was given 25k.  Was going to ask for 35k, but wanted to leave more meat on the bone for any other citi cards possibly in the future.  Went to review for about 2 hours then approval email came.. Not quite sure if I was expecting counter or the full amount, but they gave me full amount so no complaints.  Use the card quite a bit for non-cat spending anywhere from 500-4k a month.  Average probably around 1500 a month.  Alot of BT offers with it now and 1.99% financing I believe I have on it as well.  So really wanted a more usable limit if I choose to use either.

 

DP's. EQ around 790ish

24/24 approx accounts Smiley Tongue

Util 1%

Income : six figures

probably 2-3 accounts in last 6 months, just a approx guess.  Inquiries 20 on EQ (everyone pulls them here.  Experian and TU have a fraction of that)

Re: Citi CLI's

Congrats, @CreditCuriosity! I'll have to wait til September for my SP/HP one-two punch for CLIs on my Premier to see what I can take it to. I want to crack at least the $25k barrier and I'll be happy.

Re: Citi CLI's

Congrats CC on the increases! Same thing I did with my DC couple of years back. Got the standard $1.5k and went for the hp to $25k and they granted it. Not much since but satisfied with it for now. Need to get a second card out of them first then I can go for double cli’s. 😉

Awesome CLI- always feels good when you don't get countered (but then I wonder if I could've asked for more Smiley LOL ) Congrats!
