NFCU Maximum unsecured credit limit

All,

     I wanted to see if anyone has faced something similar as I recently did.  I requested a CL increase on my NFCU Rewards card to $25k from $15,300 and was increased to $22,000k.  A letter I received stated that "You've reached Navy Federal's maximum unsecured credit limit".  Has anyone received something similar?  I am asking because I also wanted to ask for an increase on my LOC to $15,000 (currently at $10,000).

    The other silver lining is that I inquired about an APR reduction and it was granted to the lowest available on that card.

    I do plan to plan to seek another bank/institution but am currently buying a home (due to be completed in Nov) so am unsure if that affects it as well (VA Loan through NFCU too)

   

 

NFCU Rewards: CL $22,000

  • Requested increase on 9/'19 to $25,000 from $15,300 
    • Last increased on 12/'18 from $13,300
  • APR reduced from 14.9% to 10.9%

NFCU AMEX: CL $25,000

  • Opened 4/'19

NFCU LOC: $10,000

  • Increased on 4/'19 from $6,000

People get it all the time. I just got it on my cash rewards. It's the same as Discover, that's all their comfortable lending you at that point in time.

Re: NFCU Maximum unsecured credit limit

Hello,

 

Their current limits are 80k across all cc's for the primary cardholder(3 max). CLOC's fall under a category even though they are unsecured. Their max has been decreased and I doubt you will be able to get an increase.

Visa Platinum 50k

Mastercard Platinum 20k

Cash Rewards 7k

LOC 15k

Re: NFCU Maximum unsecured credit limit

Yeah you can only get 3k more on the cc. Cloc can't be increased under any circumstances.
