Amex 3x CLI- How does it work?

I've seen a couple of posts mentioning a 3x CLI with the Amex card. How does that work? If after so many months/ time frame, will they give you a credit limit tripling what you already have? Thanks for any info

You can make your first request 61 days after approval. Subsequent requests must be 180 days apart, even if it's different cards.

Ok, but what does the "3x CLI" part mean? That's great tone able to ask for increase after just 2 mths! I was just approved for the Amex Blue Cash Everyday card, on yesterday. So I'm pretty new dealing with Amex.

Captool keeps telling himself that you have to wait 61 days because he doesn't want to pull the trigger Smiley Wink  In truth, you can do it immediately after you receive the card
