Re: CLI???

I think it depends on how much you use the card and if you always pay it off every month.  If you're currently pushing more than $1500 per month through it and making multiple payments then I think the chances are high.  If you only use for a couple hundred per month, I don't see you getting a raise to $5K.  It would also help if you have some other high limits at the time.

I was able to go from $1500 to $4500 earlier this year through manual review after being denied a CLI.

Re: CLI???

Koop brings up a good point, if your spending the CL and making multiple pymts your chances are high of getting a CLI as long as your files are on the up and up.
