NFCU Flagship- approved

Have been gardening for a little while now... I have been trying to get a CLI on my cash rewards card with Navy Fed for a few months now but I keep getting denied. Started reading into it on here and saw some saying they were denied CLI but were approved for a new card with them on the same day. So I decided to go for the flagship (go big or go home right??) and got the dreaded 24-48 hour notice- this was Friday night... I was disappointed and automatically assumed it was a denial. This morning I got the email... APPROVED!!! For $20K which is my highest limit to date. I'm so thrilled!!

Congrats on the 20K Flagship approval!

 

Great move. I think NFCU denying/limiting a CLI but approving a new card with a nice SL shows they wanted you to expand the overall relationship with them (which is more significant than just a CLI on only one card). I previously did the same and afterwards it seemed as if they rolled out the welcome mat for future approvals on everything else.

CONGRATS!!!!!

The 24 - 48 hour reveiw notice is commonplace with NAVY. Just curious, how long since you were approved for a cli on the cash rewards?

What were  the reasons for denial on the letters from NAVY?

Generally you can ask for your first cli at 91 days and 3 full statements. Then further cli's can be requested 181 days and 6 full statements
