Discover CLI...FINALLY

Hi All!

I FINALLY received CLIs on my Discover card! I've had it for  years (2017 maybe?) and never received a CLI. My limit got dropped from $4K to $3,600 (I was being balance chased; my balance was near there). I paid the card off and just let it sit.  I requested several CLIs and always got denied for experience with current limit.  I had a BT offer, so I took it and maxed it out in June ($3570). Then asked for an increase. Denied for the same reason. I waited and made a payment, then asked for one in July and got $500. Sweet! Made my August payment and thought "hey, why not?" I got $1,500 out of this one! I am going to continue this trend and see where it takes me as I pay off the BT. Those CLIs will really help my util on that card, taking it from maxed to 80% to ~60%. I'm stoked!

Re: Discover CLI...FINALLY

Congrats! I got a CLI when I paid my 2k Discover card off. Got a second discover 10k card around the same time. Not sure if it was the payoff or new card that affected it or both

I did mess around with the pre-approval link but didn't want to test it yet and take a hp to get a 3k limit. I'm going to garden  for another month or so and then pull the trigger on some CLIs with some of my other cards.
