NFCU More Rewards $4k SP CLI

Episode 3 in my CLI marathon.  Decided that I'd ask for a CLI on my NFCU More Rewards that I just used for the first time in a year, so that I can cash out my orphan points and merge the line into my Flagship.  As always with NFCU, it went pending.  Looked a few hours later and while the credit line hasn't updated, I have $4000 more in available credit than my credit line minus balance and no HP alerts, so that means a $4000 SP CLI!  Will have to wait until tomorrow before it shows up in the app or online next to credit limit.

 

NFCU uses Equifax FICO 9 so score today is 801, no scoreable inquiries, single digit utilization.  Last NFCU internal score a month or so ago when they didn't give me everything I asked for on Flagship was 802 (on scale from 334 to 818) according to the letter.  $29,000 on this card and $43,500 on Flagship for a total of $72,500 - just $7500 to go after I combine the cards to max out Flagship.  Also have $15,000 CLOC.

Thanks.  No, I'm reasonably confident they'll give me another $7500 before the year is over.  I can't justify a 3rd card just to basically churn it for a $7500 CLI, especially when I'm finally looking at being under 5/24 again.  Pushing a button and telling them what I want is still pretty easy, though.  LOL

Congrats @K-in-Boston  You are doing quite well.

 

I am of course happy I have the max with navy, but boy do I miss the happiness of applying and getting an increase lol
