Wayfair Strange CLI

I have had my wayfair card for a little while, always smashing that SP luv button. As of a few month now I have gotten shot down, I thought I guess I hit the max at 22.5 not that I would ever use that much lol.

 

Anyhoo, it's been a few months and thought I would try again, got the lovely 7-10 message. I thought ok I am at my max, no worries.

 

I get a phone call today, I normally don't answer unknown numbers but with my call today to USAA I thought I will pick it up. It was wayfair asking if I indeed requested a CLI, I said yes verfied some info and she asked if she could pull a report, I was like no unless it is a SP, she assured me it was and they gave me another 2K.

 

So far no alerts, I just found it strange and thought I would pass it along.

Interesting data point about them calling... thanks for sharing that tidbit.  Smiley Wink  Like you mention, that's something we don't see a lot (???) with Comenity. Smiley Surprised

 

I'm glad it all worked out, and great job on the CLI!  screamer.gif

Re: Wayfair Strange CLI

Congratulations on such a high CL on a retail card. Awesome!!! I’m glad you shared your story. I went for a CLI with Wayfair. The lady I talked to said that she couldn’t guarantee that it would be a soft pull. So weird. I told her never mind. I absolutely against a hard pull. Hmmmmm
Credit is a lot like a Reputation....It takes 20 years to build it and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, and you will do things differently.

Yes I was doubting it would be a SP myself, but it actually was for once lol.

Of course YMMV but I wish you luckSmiley Happy What is your limit currently? I always got SP CLIs until I hit 22.5K line then they stopped.
