Just for data points - QS1 requested CLI. Received $100. On credit steps however my 4th statement has yet to cut. This card barely has seen any usage (SD/emergency) and I do not expect much of the steps increase other than the promised $250 when it completes its program in the coming spring. Hoping to combine it with my QS once it receives the steps CLI.
Might be worth it to hold off combining it until just before annual fee posts -- that way, you can try for another CLI request 6 months after your first one. You may also get another auto CLI during that time frame.

Cap 1 likes usage u will not see a decent CLI if u don 't use it.
next month, I am closing this card. It helps but it doesn't make a ding in my overall UTL.
Nicely done.
