Congrats on the approvals, the DC/CC combo is pretty sweet.

Don't forget to call in and have the thankyou points accounts combined as they won't do that automatically!

So this is new to me... so if i dont call then i will have 2 seperate thank you points ? Thank you for bringing that up to my attention

Yes, in fact "combine" isn't really the right word, it's just that both thankyou points accounts will have all the points available.

You will have a thankyou points account for each card that gets thankyou points rewards. If you don't call in then these accounts will always be separate and the points will not be able to be pooled together.

Congratulations on both of your Citi double cash approvals  great card they will grow you can ask for soft increase in 6 months. I have the double cash back card from Citi it started out with Cl of 4K now it has credit limit of 23.6K. Got card back 2015. Again enjoy the cards.

Thank you @firefox100 . I wish the option for limit increase would show up. Ive had the custom cash for almost year and the option doesnt show up for me online anywhere 😔

Have you applied for any new credit cards in the last 6 months, Citi will not let you do soft increase if you have hard pull or a new trade line showing in the last 6 months. You can call the number on the back of card and ask for increase if they need to do a hard pull for approval they will give you the option to stop request with hard pull give it try by calling Citi. Good luck.

@firefox100 oh ok thanks for clarification on that. Yes i have open new accounts within the past year so that's probably why. Good to know thankyou !

You need to use a regular web browser (not the app!) and look under "products and offers" on your main account page, it'll be under the "Lending" catagory toward the bottom. It's always there even if you aren't strictly elegible for an increase.

@Lou-natic thanks i will look into that !

This is what I would try put lot spend on your Citi card and pay it off every month and do not apply for any new card for about seven months then ask for Citi for increase it may work for you. Call Citi and see what happens let us know, if they are asking for hard pull then you know that you need to try again in seven months.
