See AJC, PenFed doesn't hate everyone, they just hate you.  Smiley Happy

 

Congrats vbman.  Awsome CLi.  I had a somewhat similar experiance but with shorter time frame.  Opened card in May 2018 $8500 SL.  In October 2018 I got an offer of a $22,500 CLI or a SL in that amount on another card.  I took the CLI.  No HP.  In June 2019 I got another offer for a $7,000 CLI or a similar SL on another card.  I took the CLI and am now at $37,500 in just a year. That is approximately half my annual income.  PenFed has been very good to me.  I took the reduced $7,000 offer (over the previous one) as evidence that they had found out about my friendship with AJC.
