When you get it and setup your online account there is a luv button. Go to Account Management > Services > Credit Line Increase. The page states "It's easy to find out if you qualify for a credit limit increase. A credit bureau report will not be requested and you will receive an instant decision." It also shows your FICO Bankcard 8 score from Equifax which is pretty handy.
I am waiting on my DC too. I plan to try it when it arrives.

What was you EQ score at the time of each? And was this your FICO 8 or the FICO Bankcard score they give?
Got my DC a few minutes ago and once setup I hit them up for an increase to $10k. SL was $3k. The result was they sent it to be reviewed and will email me within 24 hours. We will see what happens. Would be nice since I intend to do a big BT.
I got declined via email with a 7-10 day as expected. Hope you fair better. No HP yet.

@MyLoFICO - Did you use the online link to request the CLI? And do you know which bureau was pulled yet?
Edit: Is your card a World or World Elite Mastercard?
Mine came as a World Elite with the silver MC logo. No HP yet so not sure who they used. Probably Equifax.

Asking for a CLI upon activation will result for sure in a HP. When I did it, they pulled EX for the initial application and then EQ for the CLI.
If I see another HP for today I am going to call and recon my denial if I can.
