Approved for a credit line increase on Chase Slate from $2,500 to $5,000. Initially declined on the Chase Slate CLI. Decided to call the backdoor number since I already took the HP. Representative had me on hold for about 5 minutes (seemed like eternity). Representative came back and asked the standard questions which I answered fully and then another brief hold. Representative came back and said I was approved. CLI available immediately. I'll have to wait to refresh my reports to see what CRA's they pulled. I'm sure initially the pull was Equifax, but on recon Chase probably pulled one or both of the two. Interesting enough, I have 3 baddies on Experian (2 HSBC and 1 Merrick) and only Merrick on Equifax and Transunion. The two HSBC on Experian show zero balance and chargeoff (paid through a collection agency which is not on report). All 3 reports show Merrick as a settled chargeoff from 2008 which was settled October 2012. Chase representative came back to me with I see that you paid a chargeoff to Merrick Bank in October 2013, tell me about that. I informed representative that it was charged off in 2008 due to a bitter divorce/job change and subsequently paid in October 2012. The representative never asked about the 2 HSBC accounts, but the amount of hold time makes me think that they probably pulled Experian too. I had a Chase Freedom in March 2013 and they pulled both Equifax and Experian for that. However, I'll see tomorrow once I'm able to refresh all my reports.
Congrats on the CLI.
Good job, congrats to your continued success
@gdale6,
Thank you. A $13,000 weekend haul. Not bad at all.
