I went over my few, ( 5 ), cards that I have and I was surprised by how much my CL's have increased this year. I don't use my US Bank Cash+ or LOC anymore so I went after two new cc's to replace them. I first went after Chase Freedom in June and received a cl of $10.6K. In Sept. I got on the Nasa train and received $30k from them. Early this year US Bank gave me an auto cli of $4.5, this was before our falling out. Just a few days ago Amex gave me an increase of $3.5k. So, after adding it up, I was surprised that I have attained a total increase in credit of $48.6k this year. So I was wondering how well others have done this year. Thanks for sharing in advance.
CLIs and new cards - $17,000
It's been hard for me to keep track of it all but I just know I've gotten a ton this year alone.
My CLIs have been plenty too ranging from a $500 CLI on my Discover card, to doubling my Amex Gold Delta card limit from a counteroffer I got and getting plenty of Sync Bank increases too.
Considering I started out with a 1K Citi Forward card last year and I have around 47K in credit, I'll round it down to 45-46K total.
$137,470. Since March. Started with one $470 Mastercard. I also got a home improvement line of credit and the home addition starts after the first, so adding that, $237,470.

+1 difficult to keep track. For me between store cards major cards and Navy Federal CU (CashRewards and NavCheck LOC) it definitely totals over 100k+ in additional just in 2014.
Everything in my signature was aquired starting in May of 2014. Didn't have anything before that besides a car loan for years due to bad credit. Has been a tremendous year.
A lot.
CLIs + new cards = $52,750 as of today.
Expecting a further $8,200 increase on my Costco TE card on Dec 27.
started last year with a whopping $300 from CapOne. This year well I splurged a bit and have added $66k in new credit from several cc and cli's and a loc. I got more than I ever thought I would need and am just going to garden until the inquiries decide to retire.
You guys, and gals, are doing outstanding in the credit achieving dept. It's hard for me to fathom having more than a $100k in credit, let alone having $200k+. I commend each and every one of you for your achievements. Keep the great work.
