Question for all in this sub.  I have two Bank of America cards I wish to try and get CLI for.  I have a Cash Rewards card that has been open since 2004 and a UPS Capital card that has been open since 2011.  I have banked with them for about 20 years and have investements with them through Merrill Lynch.  My credit score is roughly around 840 depending on the bureau and I am around 1% on my credit utilization.  My CL on one is $10k, the other $7500, and was wondering what size CLI I should do, granted I do very well financially.  Also wondering if I am able to do a CLI on both or is it similar to Amex where you can only do one at a time.  Thanks for any and all help, just trying to expand my credit and doing so a little late in the game.

I'd ask for a lot, especially if you have banked with them that long and hold steady $$ in there...it seems to have helped from what I have pieced together over the last few weeks with the 2 cards I have with them.

Do they just counter your offer if it's too high?

Boa only counters if you are eligble for an increase but dont qualify for your asking limit. Amount asked means nothing imo.

In my case, I asked for one amount, they came back with a notice saying I was approved at a lower amount.  All over the net and within seconds.

I must have went too high, no counter offer, just got hit with the 7-10 day letter on one of the cards.  Didn't try the other one.  Does this mean it will now be a HP on my credit?

Wanted to add some DP's. Has been 127 days since last CLI - decided to hit the luv button. Was at 20.7k, asked for 50k and received instant approval for 30.7k, so a 10k CLI

DP's below are fairly accurate except for one TU inq fell off a few days ago and UTI is down 2% from what is in siggy.

Magic 8 Ball says No. 

You don't get a 7-10 day notice because you requested too high a CLI, you got it because the automated process determined you were ineligible for any CLI.  If you had been it would have counteroffered. 

Don't try for a CLI on the other card either at least until there's a final dispostion on your current request.
