J.CREW WHAT JUST HAPPENED

I decided to hit the luv button on J.Crew for the hell of it I know it has always been a soft pull so I figured why not...my limit was $1,350 and I literally just hit the luv button 18 times before it showed the 7-10 day message and my limit is now $4,850!!! WHAT EVEN JUST HAPPENED RIGHT NOW. I literally kept hitting it and it would go up $250 every time, this is insane!! Has anyone else experienced this?

Re: J.CREW WHAT JUST HAPPENED

Yes most people do it with Comenity cards push CLI until you get 7-10 message. Sometimes it works sometimes not. It depends on the card. Congrats on CLI!

Re: J.CREW WHAT JUST HAPPENED

It's crazy because any other time I have done it I get one CLI of usually $250 and then it gives me the 7-10 message after that. Just amazed how many times it let me do it and how it let me increase my limit $3,500.

Re: J.CREW WHAT JUST HAPPENED

Congrats on the big CLI!

 

No one seems to know why, but of all the Comenity cards J. Crew allows multiple CLIs on a regular basis.  I did it back in Oct/Nov and went from $4K to my CL.Smiley SurprisedSmiley Very Happy. . Crew is the Comenity card that gets the least use from me.  VS and Loft are my "big spend" cards, but I'm happy to have the util cushion.

Did mine after period of non-use.  Some have reported increases without having ever used the card.  J. Crew is certainly an outlier.

I love J.Crew and generally use it once every couple months and charge a few hundred dollars here and there. Now to get Nordstrom to raise my limit.....ha
