Significant CLI on AMEX new card after only 117 Days

Was approved in January for AMEX I read a post here that gave a time frame to do a CLI so I set a reminder on my calendar. Did it this morning and requested a 10500 CL. Was at 6k. Instant approval and wondering if I left money on the table. LOL.

Yes, I believe you left $7.5k on the table, assuming they would've approved you for the full 3x CLI. But congrats nonetheless!
