Chase just auto bumped my Freedom card (opened August 2012) up by $2500. That's a 50% bump over the initial $5k they gave me.
Goes to show that there's always hope.

I’m in the garden, so I don’t want to take a HP by calling for a CLI. I’m hoping they will take the hint. Can anyone offer evidence that my hope is not without merit?
They may give you an auto CLI, but it likely won't be as much as you want. You'd have better luck getting higher limits by applying for a new card from them, if that's what you're really looking for.
Chase started me off with an $800 Amazon card. Within 3 months after getting it, I was approved for 2 AMEX cards (one at 2k that went up to 4k, and another for 4k). On the 4th month they gave me an auto CLI to $1100. Earlier this month I applied for Chase's Southwest card and they approved me...for $6500! And I hadn't put more than a few hundred bucks on that Amazon card, since I mainly use it at drugstores.
