Sportsman Visa & FNBO CLI

gurusexy · ‎05-02-2015

Called on yesterday after an offer in my email from FNBO for a BT. called in an asked if there was a pre-approval... 2K CLI. Now up to 9.1K. I use that card mainly for short term liquidity needs, using the cheques they send me. They send me BT cheques every three months since I opened the account.

Also clicked on Sportsman Visa card and got a CLI from 5K to 6.2K

All soft pulls.. Soft pull CLIs are fun. Now if I can get Discover to give me a meaningful CLI of any sort. They are the stingiest to me.... *sigh*

400K+ in open revolvers. 8% UTIL,
Inquiries- TU:2, EQ:2, EX: 3
Starting Scores: 6/12 EX: 613 11/13 TU:614
06/18: F08EX: 781; F08EQ: 787; F08TU:769 Short term goal: 800+ across all 3 Bureaus. Last app 07/19 (BBVA Personal Loan - Approved with Hard pull).

Not sure.. But what worked for me was putting a charge on the card. I never used it previously but decided to use it for my VZ fios auto pay bill.. one charge hit, and it seemed to make all the difference.. even though I hit six months this month since the opening of the acount so that might have helped as well.

Cool. I try to put at least 10 small purchases a month on it, to give them some swipe ffes etc... They gave me my first Big limit etc...

That is a good question. I have never called Comenity yet, just the button
