CitiBank DC CLI...I swear...

I swear this CLI has grown $1500 at a time, with the exception of my only HP which yielded a $7K CLI...

 

Guess I'll be grateful and keep chugging along with my SPs! ...one day I'll be over $20K CL...I feel it. Smiley Very Happy

Re: CitiBank DC CLI...I swear...

Slow and steady wins the race with Citi.  Congrats on your CLI.  I've seen similar slow-growth SP CLIs from them routinely every 6 months or so.  You made out better than I did with your HP CLI.  Citi is the only lender that I've ever gone for a HP CLI with, and I got less from the HP CLI than I did from the SP CLI before it.  Bottom line is it works for some, not for others.  Continue to grow that card and you'll get $20k for sure!

Congrats on your Citi DC cli.  Is it safe to assume that you haven't had any new inquiries on your credit report lately? Denied me a cli due to have 4 new inquiries on my report from over 4 months ago.
